We're small, but we try to make sure and respond to any activity or interaction on social media. It may only be a like for the comment or tag, it doesn't have to be an actual message of "thanks", but we try to at least acknowledge it so that people know that we are aware. Any actual DM's sent our way we personally handle even after an automatic message has been sent first. While it may seem a poor use of time, it only takes one disgruntled person to ruin all of the hard work you have created and one person liking your organization to take it to a different level. I don't think you want your customers, clients, or anyone to feel like you don't appreciate them spreading your word. That's why we use social media, to spread our word. If you are feeling over taxed, you may think of only looking over social media once or twice a day, don't check it all day long, and let people understand it may take you some time to reply. Although we have only one person mainly looking at what is going on on our social media outlets, we have several attached and able to answer dm's and comments if that one person is unavailable. Hope this helps.

What is your organization's policy about responding on social media?
Do you attempt to reply to all tags on posts? Do you reply to all messages or do you let the autoreply suffice?
We have done our best to reply to all tags and messages, but as our social channels grow, we worry it is becoming unsustainable and a poor use of time.
