2. Always reply and acknowledge people who comment on and share your work.
Doing so makes the person who did it feel seen, appreciated, and more likely to do it again.
It also strengthens their relationship with you which is what it means to be a true fan.

3. Share the spotlight.
Even if you only reach 20 people, you still have the ability to tell those 20 people about the work, creations, and causes of others.
