When I'm being disciplined, on Sundays I like to set up a few things to autopost or autotweet throughout the rest of the week (articles I want to share, tips, etc.). Then the rest of the week, I just tweet, post, and respond live as I wish without worrying that I have to “do social media.” I know that the content that I want to get out there is out there.

Social media frustrates me because it sucks up time like a vacuum. I only just realised how necessary it is for my new business (Doh!) so learning the ropes is extremely time consuming for me. there is so much to learn about blogging, tweeting, facebook pages, feedburners, friends connect, etc. I never actually know what is classified as social media and what is not, they are all so intertwined!
So, for someone like me who is just getting started and setting things up (blogs, tweets etc…) the best approach is LISTS. every morning, I make daily lists of the social media sites I need to focus on and allocate bits of time throughout the day to check them..Otherwise, I'll have no time to actually make things!
Thanks for the post btw, very useful.

I also like to catch up when I'm listening to conference calls. I listen to a lot of calls and they don't always require that I pay 100% attention 100% of the time (be sure you are muted so they can't here you clicking away!). Accepting connection requests on Twitter/Facebook/LinkedIn is especially easy to multi-task.

Great tips and what a great way to find dedicated time! You really do need to map it out and schedule it where you can to stay on top of it. Social media is such a dynamic environment and so many great connections can be made with targeted effort. But, some busineses really do not have the time, as a Social Media Consultant, that's where I come in.

Great tips! Been thinking of doing the coffee shop. There's something about getting away from the office, just you, the java, & your laptop that increases productivity. Planning helpful tweets, status updates & being aware of what you want to accomplish from time spent is wise.

I've always been selective about who I friend & follow because of all the sales pitchy clutter out there. But wasn't always as strategic as I've been in the last few weeks. It makes a huge difference. I have 3 blogs & know the type of people I need and who I can help. To avoid overwhelm you need to concentrate on mutually beneficial relationships & say no to those that do not further whatever your goals are. To me that's the difference between just collecting and really connecting. It gives you more time to communicate w/ people you want to get to know. Thanks!
