How to set up a facebook business page

This is a good video as it shows each of the steps to set up a page for your art business. (or just yourself as an artist) It also includes information on a graphic design site called Canva - which I highly recommend - I do most of my graphics ( including the social media graphic at the top of this page ) in Canva.

how  to  set up an   Instagram  account 

I have added two videos to get you started on Instagram. The first is the initial set up and the second shows you how to add photos to your account.  There are four more videos in this series, they can be seen here  Road Scholar

How to  create a  personal   account on Facebook

In order to create a business or artist page on Facebook you have to have a personal account.  Here is how to set it up.

Let me know
​what else  you would like to know 
Hopefully that is enough to get everyone started ( I don't want to overwhelm everybody) Keep in mind, it does take some time to get familiar with each of he social media platforms. 
I will be adding more info here weekly - so keep on popping by to see what's new. 
If you have any questions or info requests, please let me know as other members might have similar questions as well.

    Social  media  sharing  survey  for  MAA  members

    Hey there! Ok - so now that you are on social media - or have been for a while-  Do you want to connect with other members?  This is to have other members see your posts, like your page, share your stuff, send friend request etc.  Now something like a friend request is something that you might not want. So ONLY INCLUDE LINKS TO PAGES & PROFILES THAT YOU WANT TO BE MADE PUBLIC.   If you are not interested in one or more of the connections, just leave them blank.  If you do want to make the connections then copy and paste the url address of your social media addresses into the boxes provided below. Thank you.
    Please include all of your social media accounts that you would like to shared with all of the MAA members and on the MAA website
    Thanks so much - When I have all the info I will forward it to Tom so it can be made available on the MAA website.
