If you had to remember "only one thing"

There are places and moments in your field of activity, whether physical or virtual, where not being present is a "fault" from the point of view of the marketing of itself. 

Certainly, in real life no one has the gift of ubiquity and you can not be present at all the fairs, conferences, meetings you would like to attend and where it would be good to ensure a presence.

Regarding social networks, I will not pretend that the possibility of the gift of ubiquity is total, but however, be present on the social networks and places most seen in your area of ​​activity is easier . 

It is therefore strongly advised, beyond the generalist networks, to methodically index the specialized social networks (if any).

As well as the places of interaction of the experts and influence's of your field, as well to learn as to be seen and, as far as possible, participate and put your mark on it.
