Frequently Asked Questions

What's the ideal ratio of personal to professional content?

We typically recommend a 60/40 split favoring professional content, but this can vary based on your industry and audience preferences.

What personal topics are appropriate to share?

Our boundary guidelines help you share personal interests, values, and select life experiences while avoiding politically divisive topics or overly private details.

How do I know if my personal content aligns with my company brand?

Our brand alignment tools help you identify personal content that reinforces your company values and avoid content that might contradict your business positioning.

Should I have separate accounts for personal and professional content?

For most founders, we recommend a single account with a strategic content mix, as this builds a more complete and authentic connection with your audience.
