We had a small turnout on Tuesday for our first step in social media marketing but I also heard from a few others who wanted to come but just couldn’t make it. This is just the first step, so plenty of time for anyone interested to join us on this journey.
If you couldn’t make the session, you may review the Social Media Marketing–The Start slides. Also, download and print the social media checklist.
Please review this presentation prior to our next session on July 7. The PowerPoint includes some resources we are using, as well as action items for you to work on before our next meeting.
Please respond to this post if you have questions.
Our June 16 Biz Talk will be the start of a series of sessions on getting started with social media marketing. If you are struggling with how to make sense of Facebook, LinkedIn, Myspace, Twitter, etc. and not sure what to do, how to start, or if it is worth the time, you should join us! We will begin with an overview of what is social media marketing (it is a lot more than just Facebook!) and talk about ways to use it PROFITABLY.
- How to identify which approaches are right for your audience
- How to listen before you jump in
- How social media marketing is entirely different than regular marketing
- How to build your strategy and how to keep it going
Social media marketing can be very useful and profitable. It can also be a way to waste a lot of time with little or no return. The difference is developing a strategy, sticking to it, and tracking your results–not just jumping on the latest trend.
Despite what you might read, social media marketing is new and still evolving. Sure there are lots of guidelines, but there are many more questions. So why not join the Biz Talk group where we can all learn, implement, share and profit.
Our June 16 meeting will focus on defining social media marketing and give you action items to work on for session two. Subsequent sessions will build on foundation, so we encourage you to attend all the sessions, regardless of your experience with social media marketing.
See you on June 16!
