You still haven’t started using social medea and social networking sites to interact with your clients and customers; to build and develop your online brand; to learn more about your industry and what customers are saying about it? And this is because…?
Seriously. What are you waiting for?
I’ve got clients who spend $50,000 a year on print magazine ads in various trade magazines.
Here’s something to consider. Where if you could have a presence in the top, most popular three or four magazines available these days. Three or four magazines that had, by far, the biggest number of readers and offered you ways of reaching targeted audiences that were interested what you had to offer. Three or four top magazines that allowed you to continually update your message and content.
What would you be prepared to spend on that annually?
How about NOTHING, FREE!
Introducing Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and YouTube. Okay, so there would be an investment of your time, or perhaps even hiring a social media intern for bigger companies, but these are the hottest and most affordable places to build your brand these days. Usually you don’t get that combination. If it’s the best venue, it’s usually not the cheapest. So how can you afford not to take advantage of this?!? You can’t!
If you’re business is not taking advantage of these sites and the opportunities they give you to stay in front of your audience, in a year you will have trouble keeping up with your competition who is using these venues for their company.
Nuff said? Hopefully you’ve already done it, but if not, follow these links to get started today….
