Let’s face it.  Many big time athletes are starting to build and expand their brand to new audiences by connecting with fans on social networks.  Shaq and Lance Armstrong are two all-stars who are using Twitter and Facebook and seeing great results.  They are doing a fantastic job, but a lot of it has to do with their already “big brand” presence they have offline.

Even if you are not a “big time” pro athlete, actor, entertainer, or brand, there are still things you should be doing online to connect with your audience.  Luckily for us, we don’t have to think about how to implement everything online because there are experts like Amy Martin who can lead the way.  Amy works with powerful brands such as Shaq, the Chicago White Sox, Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), and more.   Check out the video below for a few of her tips you should be implementing to develop your (athletes) brand online.

What are some other things athletes should be doing to connect with their fans and build their brand online?  Feel free to share you thoughts in the comment section below with your top suggestions.

shaqTrue to the social-media savvy, NBA All-Star’s form, Shaquille O’Neal’s two-day stay in Vegas tipped off with on-the-street giveaways as a part of an all-night social media blitz that took place to launch the weekend’s enlyten events.

Digital Royalty planned the first-ever progressive tweet-up, known as a Tweethop. It’s a mixture between a Tweetup, a meeting between Twitter acquaintances, and club hopping with Hip hop dancers in town. The Hip hop squad handed out enlyten product samples throughout the evening in some of the trendiest clubs along the strip. The entire event was planned via social media.

Watch how it all went down during this video, and see Shaq dance…
