Hi All,

I'm 25 years old, so social media plays a big part in my life (or used too). I quit my full time job January 1st, and blocked out all outside distractions in my life, which included FB and instagram. As I'm starting to get into my REI career full swing, im questioning if I should get back onto social media? I'm meeting tons of new people, and want to show the world what I'm doing. I feel being plugged into social media and would be a good form of advertising, and may even attract investors.

Whats everyones take on this?

My Facebook pages help generate a LOT of business.  Yes its distracting at times but Facebook is killer for networking and advertising.   Ive even had family members decide to invest with me because they could see what I was doing on fb.  Instagram is newer / younger so I don't think its even fully caught on with the older generation but it will.  If I was you I would dive back in and start building followers.  Why not.. its THE best form of advertising for the money and your 25 so its like breathing to you...     do it!
