Social Media

 

Do you know your Twitter from your Buzz, your Facebook from your FriendFeed, or your Linked In from your Foursquare?

 

Social networking has been around for years, in the form of business networking meetings, conferences, internal organisation days and events for people with a common interest, work or pleasure.

 

Social Media has been around for over 10 years; its current manifest began to escalate about 4 years ago. Social media is simply a diversification of physical social networking with the integration of technology.

 

  • You no longer have to be in the same room to build a solid relationship
  • You no longer have to spend tens of £1000's to reach audiences
  • You no longer have to spend hours waiting to receive information or feedback

But where do you begin?

Well, there are a lot of social media sites out there. Twitter and Facebook are the big players, followed closely by Linked In and Ecademy. But what about Foursquare, Buzz, FriendFeed and Gowalla?

And how do you connect them all and conform to etiquette without spending hours every day with no result?

 

Social media, like any marketing strategy, takes time to learn best practice. Social media is created by its audience in the form of blogs, membership sites, photo sites and microblogs. It is important to understand what outcome you wish to gain from social media and that a strategy is required.

 

Building solid relationships, engaging with clients and customers, even suppliers can be achieved through a carefully executed social media strategy...and it's:

 

  • Free
  • Real time
  • A great way to source information
  • A channel to reach customers and prospects
  • A powerful force to engage and build relationship
