Building a positive social media community with Kyle Vazquez of Exp Realty NJ
Social media is not going anywhere. It will play a role in our relationships, community, and businesses. We have seen social media's role in elections, conversations, and major milestones in our society. But we have also seen as with anything with great power comes great responsibility. Social Media has also become a breeding ground for misinformation, extremism, and bullying. A healthy social media experience is important to our mental health, making well-informed decisions, and building a safe space for discourse. Entrepreneurs and experts in various industries have a responsibility on social media when it comes to advocating their brands and specialties, but also encouraging a safe digital environment as they build their own communities within the platform.
Here's where our next Guest comes in. Kyle Vazquez believes in the importance of building a positive social media community as he builds his brand as a real estate and finance expert. Based out of New Jersey, Kyle understands that being a licensed real estate agent is more than the acquisition of property, it's the investment into our communities and support for our clients. Mr. Vazquez took this opportunity and invited us into his own journey, and he chronicles parts of his life and experiences on social media. Because of his raw unedited approach on Instagram, he was able to teach his followers how to think positively, plan for the future, and how to create a portfolio that focuses on building wealth.
We are talking about brand awareness, real estate growth, and diversity in real estate.

Growing a business: Introvert edition with Jason Cavness of Cavness HR

Because he values his downtime and normal life, he has away from the entertainment industry. He can take public transportation, run errands and spend time doing what he loves. Rihanna keeps her circle tight and plans out her public engagements to allow for rest and recharge. Not everyone wants attention 24/7. But we know social media and marketing are important to our businesses. The time we allocate is important this practice is important. Our business does not grow without support. We treasure that opportunity, and we are grateful for the support.
