It's the rage, there are webinars, seminars, white papers, and loads of tweets on how to use social media for marketing.
I attended a presentation by Hillary Brown (@hillabean) on social media marketing strategies, and I am finally sold.
There are two valid reasons to monitor and participate in social media marketing:
1) Search engine rankings - the more your brand appears online, the more likely your brand name will appear in search findings. 2) Viral marketing - the online form of word-of-mouth marketing. If your business has flourished as a result of good customers talking good things about your business, those same good customers are now likely twittering, blogging, facebooking, and posting comments about your business. The tools exist to track your brand name across these social media platforms. Want to know what people are saying about you? Moreover, would you prefer to contribute to the positive image your brand name already enjoys? Join Twitter, create a Facebook page, build a blog... The time has come.
