What's the best way you can promote on social media without being salesy? Celebrity Hack Ahead: Are you afraid to reveal too much personal info or be hardcore selling on social media? If you are, you’re right on both. Here’s the thing, people come to social media to be social. So if your feed looks like a classified ad with zero character, no one will pay attention.
