Why I Schedule Tweets

February 17, 2014 By Bryan Vartabedian · Reading Time: 2 minutes

A few months ago I signed up for Buffer to schedule tweets.  Until that time, I had bought into the idea that scheduling a tweet was like sending a mannequin to a cocktail party. As it turns out, I have found it to be a real help in reaching the people. A couple of thoughts on why Buffer has worked for me. I read and collect at odd hours.  Scheduling allows me ...

Word Constraint 500 – How the World Consumes Media

February 11, 2014 By Bryan Vartabedian · Reading Time: < 1 minute

Quartz, one of the web’s fastest growing publications, recently shared that their success stems from understanding that published content must be under 500 or over 800 words.  Otherwise they’re stuff is too long to share and too short to be in-depth.

Lists represent the quick kill for marketeers.  But great curators create deeper value for their readers.  Curation ... Continue Reading about 4 Ways to Create Value with Curation

The Solution to Twitter’s Pseudoscience Problem

December 30, 2013 By Bryan Vartabedian · Reading Time: < 1 minute

It’s easy in principle.  We compete with involvement.  Every one of us bears the responsibility to chime in when nonsense prevails.  The collective opinion of sensible practitioners has the capacity to ...

Health Message Design for Constrained Media

December 7, 2013 By Bryan Vartabedian · Reading Time: < 1 minute

I stopped to pay attention.  The face of the health professional helped draw me in.  The focused nature of the both messages was easy to process.  In a monotonous text heavy ...
