"Do you want to become a social media star in the fashion biz? Look no further than Coco Rocha and her quick ascent on virtually every platform from Twitter to Instagram. Glamour editor in chief Cindi Leive recently asked Coco what her keys to social media success were during a panel discussion that served as the finale to New York Fashion Week. Coco has 479,750 followers on Twitter, 345,000 followers on Instagram and more than one million on Google +. &amp;quot;When I started there were no blogs in this industry so I thought, well why not blog about my life as a model,&amp;quot; Coco said. &amp;quot;There was this new thing called Twitter and I was on it. I was on Instagram back when it started. If you&amp;#x27;re first on a platform your numbers will grow tremendously.&amp;quot; Being first is important but she said the quality of content is crucial. &amp;quot;The content is from me--not some PR firm. I know my voice best.&amp;quot; Finally, she said China is an important market to consider for the future. &amp;quot;Fashion in China is huge. Models are bigger than celebrities. It&amp;#x27;s important to find people that aren&amp;#x27;t accessible.&amp;quot; Of course, this doesn&amp;#x27;t only apply to China. The key is to reach out to people that might not normally have access to your voice and what you&amp;#x27;re trying to share with the world. Which type of social media do you use most frequently? Would you try these tips to increase your exposure on Twitter, Instagram or Facebook? Photo: WWD/Steve Eichner"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
