Kardashian West is in a good position to give social media advice — she has 24.8 million followers on Twitter and 20 million on Instagram.
And so, some tips on tweeting from Kardashian herself:
- Social media will make your career.
“I think my career is so heavily based on social media, and so many opportunities have come my way because of the mobile space.” - Use Twitter as your Google.
“Twitter really became my form of Google — I would just get on Twitter and say, ‘Does anyone know where to go eat in this city?’ … It’s just an amazing focus group.” - Instagram is the best social network.
“It’s intimate. It has a little bit more texture than just words.” - Use your BlackBerry Bold for power-tweeting.
“It’s my heart and soul. I love it, and I’ll never get rid of it.” - Don’t be weird and post more than three pictures from one location.
“I have a three-image rule: In the same setting, I try not to do more than three. It over-saturates my feed.”
- Bonus tip: Wearable tech is not cute.
“It’s just not for me.”
