Polish term or phrase: tani lans
"Tani lans czy przemyślana strategia budowania marki na Facebooku?

Dzisiejszy wpis chciałabym poświęcić roli social mediów w biznesie. W budowaniu własnej marki. Dlaczego? Ponieważ bardzo często spotykam się z brakiem zrozumienia ze strony znajomych (i nie tylko) w związku z prowadzeniem przeze mnie Facebooka czy Instagrama. Słyszę teksty typu: „za bardzo się uzewnętrzniasz na Facebooku”, „za dużo wrzucasz postów” (choć wśród swoich znajomych na FB mam kilkunastu, którzy wrzucają trzy razy więcej ode mnie i nie widzą w tym problemu).
Budowanie wizerunku na Facebooku to nieodłączny element mojej pracy. Nie traktuję tego jako pewnego rodzaju lansu, próby zwrócenia na siebie uwagi. Nie ekscytuję się lajkami zdobytymi pod zdjęciami, nie podniecam się komentarzami panów (choć nie ukrywam, że komplementy od kobiet chętniej czytam i mają dla mnie ogromne znaczenie). Nie szukam atencji, bo mam partnera, który poświęca mi tyle uwagi, że nie potrzebuję jej od innych osób.

cheap swag


Explanation:
Uważam, że sprawdzi się cheap swag.

The promotional products industry has come a long way from the days of cheap giveaways, the proverbial "trinkets and trash." The best companies have put the focus on value, quality and responsible sourcing, helping the industry to a record-breaking $23.3 billion in 2017 revenue.

So why can't it shake the nagging perception that it sells mostly cheap swag—and why does it matter?

Naszła mnie jeszcze jedna myśl. W podanym nagłówku „Robert Biedroń bryluje w mediach. Tani lans czy skuteczny polityk?” można „cheap swag” zamienić na „cheap swagger” ;)
