Hi Folks

I hope you're all well. Can anybody be kind enough to recommend any good online social media tutorials in order to improve my skills in Facebook, Twitter, Histogram, Linked In etc?

Thank in advance

    Histogram is a social media platform now?

    Exactly what skills do you think you need?
    Looking at your other posts/queries maybe some IT classes would be useful.
    Or ask your son and his mates :D
    Plus get out more, would be my advice. That's not me being sarcastic.
    The more time you spend interacting in the real world the more you will have to contribute to any discussion and the better your communication skills will be.

    Many thanks for your comments.

    Croctacus and chopsim - There is no need to be sarcastic. If you do not have anything helpful to say, then please don't post to my query.

    It wasn't sarcasm. Learning to type, spell correctly and use proper grammar is essential if you want to improve.
    Potential customers will pick up immediately on spelling mistakes.

    Its a good point, bad spelling and grammar will scare people away as it doesn't look like you have put any effort in to your sales pitch.

    Yes, I agree it is a good point, but I detected some sarcasm. (perhaps wrongly).

    My excuse - I was trying to do more than 1 thing at the same time !!

    Not sure why you think it's sarcasm or unhelpful.

    It's very important in business. And that is what you're asking about, after all.

    That's true for me. If I look on Gumtree for a painter or plumber, I tend to think the ones that spell badly might be worth avoiding. It's when they say ' No job to small ' and ' free quotatians ' - you tend to give those a miss.
