Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey, friend, we are back in the courtroom. Let us
get into it. This one is for all of the
social media girlies and guys, because if you have friends
who promote their businesses on social media, I think you
will have a lot to say about this case. Let's
get into it. It says, hey, ki key, am I
wrong for not supporting my friends' business on social media?

(00:23):
My friend launched her new business and asked everyone to
share her post. I saw the post, I liked the posts,
but I did not share the post because I've been
trying to keep my page clean and professional for my
own work. So my friend texted me and said, it's
crazy how strangers support me online more than my own

(00:44):
friends do. I responded and said, listen, people take social
media to serious. And I just noticed after I sent
that text, she blocked me on all of her social
media pages. Am I wrong for not reposting her business
even though I genuinely support her in real life? Okay,

(01:04):
I feel like two things can be true here. Yes,
people take social media way too serious. However, supporting your
friend's business online is free. It's free. It takes nothing
for you to like their posts, comment, engage with the post,
and then she she personally asked you to repost it. Now,

(01:24):
I understand you may not have wanted it on your page.
You don't want your followers to think maybe this is
your business or you're affiliated somehow. But a simple repost
to maybe your stories or something to just say, hey,
my friends just started a new business. Check her out.
Like that type of support is free. It's free. It

(01:44):
takes nothing from you to do it. So I understand.
Sometimes the algorithm will not show you your friends work
and people will walk around upset thinking that you don't
support them and you didn't even see it. I get
that part right, But she literally reached out to you
and asked you, hey, can you please repost this for
me as a friend. I think it would have taken

(02:05):
nothing for you to just repost it in your stories,
or even if you said, hey, girl, like, I don't
want to put this on my page, but I'm gonna
make sure that I tell people about it. I'm gonna
share it with some people, or if you said, hey,
I'm not gonna repost it, but I'm gonna comment on it.
You just saw it, you liked it, and you kept moving,
and your friend literally asked you for some online support.
I think you are wrong here, friend, I do in

(02:27):
my opinion as somebody who a lot of my job
is revolves around my online presence. Right, My bosses and
things judge me off of the numbers and engagement that
they see on my social media feeds. So to me,
it's like, you know this is a part of her business.
You know, this is what she's doing. It literally takes

(02:47):
nothing for you to support her online. Support online is free.
It is free. And that's why I love the Thirteen
because y'all support me online, y'all support the Fred Show online,
and literally what we do, it's free for you to
support us. It's free for you to listen to the
radio that supports us. It's free for you to like
a post on social media. That is how you can
support us. And so I think your friend was more

(03:09):
than reasonable by asking you to support her online. And
I don't feel like you you even really gave it
much attention. You said, you saw the post, you liked
the post, you kept moving. You could have like she
asked you to repost it. If you didn't want to,
then tell her that and tell her why, but like
just ignoring it completely and just not even like showing

(03:31):
her any love online. I think that was a little
like a little shady. I think that was a little
shady friend. So I understand why she may have blocked
you home, And I think if you want to repair
the friendship, you can simply reach out, like, hey, girl, like,
you know, my bad for not reposting it. This is
why I didn't repost it. But I've you know, I'm
gonna share it with some people. I'm definitely gonna talk
about it to people like and let her know that

(03:52):
you genuinely support her, because I will tell you in
my experience, I get way more support from people I've
never met in my life online right, never met in
my life, than I do from the people I know
in real life. Like if you go on my Facebook,
it's mostly like people I went to high school with
family members. I may get like one, like two comments

(04:14):
over there. But you know, on a somewhere like TikTok
or Instagram where I literally don't know anybody in real life,
I get so much support in love, And I don't
understand why it's like that. If you see your friends
start a business, or if you see your friend posting
something on social media and you know that they need
your support, just go ahead and engage with it. It's free.

(04:34):
It is a free way of supporting people. So I
may be a little biased on this though because I
work in such a social media place. But let me
know your thoughts, you guys are the jury. Of course.
I posted a video to my Instagram and my TikTok
and Fred Show platforms too. Go over there. Let me
know your thoughts, and yeah, it's mandatory, like it's you must.

(04:54):
I'm just kidding, but yeah, if you want to support,
engage with the post online. But yeah, girl, I think
you're wrong on this one. I think social media support
is the easiest thing you can do for a friend.
It is free, it is free, it takes nothing. But anyway,
let me know your thoughts. Jury. Hit me up of
course on the gram, at on air ky k K

(05:15):
e k E, at Fresh Show Radio everywhere, and I
will talk to you tomorrow like bright and early. You
already know. Love you. Bye.
