Building Media following

Hitting 43 in month and feeling old as well.

Ah... What I would give to be 43 again. Or even 53....

I’m a 1963 vintage barely able to keep up all the technology of cameras

'62 vintage here. I actually love keeping up with the technology!

I want to build my social media following further and was wondering what others are using. Instagram, Facebook, Website

I use Instagram but I plan to also use Twitter and I am going to try Pinterest and Patreon.

How does Patreon work? I've seen it for photographers that I follow their YouTube channels, vlogs, and blogs as a way to further monetize their products. I'd be interested to learn more about it as a tool for social media.

https://vero.co/ seems to be gaining a lot of attention recently as well. If I was to create another social profile it would probably be on there. Peter Mckinnon has recently done a video on it:

I've had a vero account for ages. I'll have to give it a look again. If anyone is on Vero please post your username, so I can follow. I go by Hali Sowle (pretty unimaginative)

I am still looking into that. I see people promote their pattern over social media a lot. If you are a member, ASMP has a good webinar about using social for photographers. Also, while not for photographers specifically Hubspot Marketing has a free course and certification for social media.

Greatly appreciate the information provided and plan to start looking into some of these other outlets.
