Use Of Social Media Is Like Physical Fitness

You probably got drilled into you early that exercise is good for you, and most people still just don't do it. Much of the social media message is to just do it.

You could train for the Olympics. You could train like Rocky. And this is where the social media experts come in. There is something called heavy hitting social media.
