A.  Remove identifiable specifics but keep the compelling parts

Q.  How to circumvent sharing your personal information and still have a brand page
A.  Follow the lead of teens & set up an alternate personal profile before launching your brand. This may also play a role of you intend to sell your business and its assets

Q.  How to utilize time-saving tools like Hootsuite
A.  Get alerts when people are interacting with your page, also available on smartphones

Q.  Being aware that hashtags are not appropriate for Facebook
A.  It’s easy to post across all platforms at once; be aware of differing norms and etiquette

Q.  The difference between your wall and your newsfeed
