After Mitt Romney’s announcement of his GOP running mate, Paul Ryan (R-Wis.), members of Congress took to social media to express their thoughts.social media

To their dismay, there are rules regulating official use of social media for personal opinions, according to one report. 

With the very establishment responsible for cultivating our Freedom of Speech subject to social media restrictions, it is hard to deny just how omnipresent social media has become.

For Better Or Worse

As a public forum, it’s ideal to curate public opinion and reach large crowds, but as a political soapbox, it could do more harm than good.

The solution? Congress members are required to use their personal accounts, making for no shortage of confusion for their many followers.

The Proof Is In The Punch

Unfortunately, for members of Congress, pro-transparency organizations like the Sunlight Foundation archives deleted tweets and publish them on Politwoops.

Here’s What They Say

From top to bottom the tweets are fraught with absolutes and repetition. Most notably:

To be sure, these ideas seem obvious. But perhaps some of the most beneficial advice can be gleaned from one of iQuarius Media’s Social Media Managers. As @ncosta818 puts it, “Social media is a compote of both the good and the bad. Embrace both accordingly #socialmedia.”

That is: welcome opposition, challenge adversity, and admit fault.  As a result, your brand will soar, your followers will respect you, and depth will be assigned to your message.

We Are Your Brand

No one knows your brand better than you. However, iQuarius Media is a close second when you need us, and sometimes it takes an expert to properly relay a message.

With our wealth of industry experience and specialization in Internet marketing and website design, it is our job to enforce these sorts of social media strategies.

Check us out online or on any social media platforms to learn more. As Social Media Manager @ChrisK_Media put it, “Social media isn’t for you, it’s for your fans! #socialmedia.” Let us make sure they take pride in that ownership.
