  • Use a work account or your own?

    Posted by per_coh on December 20, 2022 at 9:14 am

    When you start a new job and you become responsible for their social media, do you use your own account, or do you set up a new one?

    Personally I like to separate church and state, but it gets tricky too; just about to RT something and then I think “oh damn, which account am I on right now.”

    Use the business email per account, that way you walk away and they can take over when or if you leave.

    I would definitely set up a new one and not use your own account. I know what you mean when it comes to making sure that you are on the right account, but double-checking is better than not having clearly defined accounts.

    For Facebook, It violates their TOS to have a fake account. So if you decide to go that route, be sure you have a backup way to access the customer’s page.

    I like separate, but I do appreciate your concerns about making sure you are on the right account. Enough time has passed that I can now laugh about the time I posted the results of our family tequila tasting on the work accounts 🙂
