Here at 24/7 Teach, our company mentality is to post quality content with value.
Imagine that The New York Times printed all of your social media posts on its front page. Would they print it if it wasn’t high quality and didn’t provide value to its readers? Absolutely not.
Whether working on projects or sharing successes, team members should always share their best work. After all, one never knows who might see that post—it could result in a job offer.
