This list of Twitter apps and sites and some of my hints on how I use them, will provide you with some ideas on how to do the same for your busy social media calendars:
One question I get asked quite a lot about is whether there is any way to track your Social Media Marketing success. The short answer is Yes! although in the next breath I have to explain that it is done in a different way to your ‘other’ marketing. Would you like to know how?
Now as an online marketer I understand that “it’s all in the list” and a list can be a list of social media followers, friends and fans.. BUT! Yes there is a big BUT and not the kind you want to shake (as in booty) lol.
So you have found your niche and you have built your site and now you’re ready to go out and get yourself known as an expert. How do you get started? How do you get known?
I presented a seminar on Social Media Marketing the other day and one of the questions that came up was “What’s the point of learning all this when my website isn’t even up yet?” My answer was immediate, “Start now to create buzz, so that when your site does go up, you already have people ready and waiting to find out more.”
Most of us are marketing to create more success for our business, and even with social media we can have a plan and a map and set goals. So now I ask you What’s Your Social Media Marketing Plan? Do you have one?
One of the most important things to learn about social media of marketing is that it is all about building relationships, creating and adding value to conversations and it is SOCIAL.
What is different about this new approach to internet marketing? The big difference is: it is about making real relationships with real people in a virtual world.
