Social Media requires a balance of work behind each of the two words that make up the practice. Social, by building trust with our audiences and connecting as personally as appropriate, and Media, by scaling our storytelling efforts to brand-level corporate marketing initiatives.

The “Social” in Social Media

The world’s best brands feel more like a trusted source of information to their audience than a company. They could even develop friendly relationships with their followers. This is because the world’s best brands understand people and weave that understanding into everything they do. Social Media at GitLab is a key part of building GitLab’s brand into one that is loved by its audience of developers, remote work pros, and IT folks up and down the ladder.
