Self-Promotion tips

This is what everyone keeps hearing by the way and its no wonder so many people are always confused about marketing especially when on social media!

CPL ( cost per lead) or even CTR (click through rate) when it comes to social influence – ROI ( Return on Influence) as well as ROE (return on engagement  the waters sure can get very muddy and many people just don’t get it!
