Social Media Marketing
Social media marketing is a way for companies or brands to interact with customers, maybe potential customers, socially and naturally. It is typically done on bigger sites like Facebook, Linked In, or Twitter but can also be done on smaller niche sites built more around the community. Social media is like a town hall; it’s a place where people come to see their families or catch up with friends, share stories, even discuss today’s latest breaking news or educate themselves. Here, people don’t want to be handed a flyer with your sales pitch on it; they want to discuss and engage relevant things. It provides an excellent chance for companies to reach out to people that may not know anything about them, to be able to discuss what’s important to them, to engage in these conversations and have honest discussions about real things that matter to the individual. Social media marketing can serve every stage of the buying cycle. Most importantly, one thing to remember with social media marketing is to be yourself and have a personality. People don’t want to engage with something stiff or just a logo. They want to engage with a human, so be a human being, natural, and social. Therefore, it is crucial to have the proper training to create an impact through social media marketing.
