One of the fun things we can do on social media today is ask our audience a question in a poll. We can ask, what’s their favorite color. We can find out if they like short videos or long videos! And more importantly, polls can be a lot of fun and they can increase engagement with our followers because everyone likes to voice their opinion! If you keep the poll short and simple enough as long as people see it they will probably vote one way or the other. That’s why yes or no polls work well!  But there are times when polling our audience can get us into trouble. Find out why you need to be careful what you ask your audience on social media! 💲UPPORT THE 💲HOW AND KEEP THE #PODSTORY ALIVE Connect with me in all the "other" places too: Twitter twitter.com/ileane  Instagram instagram.com/ileane  Facebook https://fb.com/msileanespeaks Email me ileane.link/contact  Leave me a voicemail ileane.link/voicemail  Thanks for listening!
