A popular refrain I hear from genuine social media leaders is that you need to give more than you take. This means retweeting people, promoting someone else, commenting on blogs, long before you will ever need to ask for something yourself so that the relationship is already there. This is actually a good mantra for life in general.

Thanks @mikesgene. If you think about Facebook, YouTube, Google and Twitter – they’re really new incarnations/extensions of media companies, but media companies nonetheless so, as you said, a lot of the basics apply.

@sherrilynne I guess that’s where creativity comes in… Maybe that’s a post we can work on together.

Interesting that a couple of your points reference mainstream media ( radio & publishers) and that the other tips have regular media relevance as well. Since I took my first online steps a couple of decades back (yup it started that long ago ! ) I’ve alway said that audiences and communication basics haven’t changed that much. Lots to master in the tools, but you’re so right in noting that mastering the psychology and theory is a good place to start.

Your tip no. 5 is not insignificant. Now you have to give us some advice on how to be all those things!
