Is your small business using social media? If not, hopefully article this will get you to start.
I went to the mailbox today and hit the jackpot! A whole big stack of marketing flyers, coupons, and other junk that I usually throw right out.
However, today I actually scanned the stack of heaping marketing messages. Good thing I did! It screamed “Write a blog post about me!!!! Hurry!!!!”
Thus, today’s message. In just one day’s mail, take a close look at how many businesses are using social media websites such as Twitter & Facebook. Keep in mind, your small business can benefit just as much from social media as a multi-million dollar organization. It all comes down to your strategy. Take a look:
Fact: Using social media DOES NOT mean that you open up a Facebook and Twitter account and sit back and watch the benefits. First you have to identify your target market, research where they hang out online, and then go after them! It’s strategy. Just like playing chess.
