Remember when the only real site out there considered a social media site was Myspace? We all thought it was so innovative after years of AOL, Compuserve, and BBSs. LOL! But now, there are enough social media sites out there to make your head spin. If you are running a business, of course social media can be very beneficial to your survival. But, how do you find balance? Is it possible.
In my latest post on momAgenda I gave a few tips for striking a balance. These include things like scheduling time for Twitter and being sure to engage our followers.
The following is a guest post from momAgendaCOMM blogger Kris Cain.

However, the key is balance and planning. I am going to give you 5 tips for achieving balance and I am going to admit that I don’t yet abide by all of these rules…but it’s a work in progress.
