There is a huge buzz about social media and social media solutions for businesses and integrating all these new media strategies to engage and get in front of and at “eyeball level”, with your customers using Facebook‘s new updates, Google Plus, Twitter, LinkedIn and YouTube, to spread the word about YOU!

The “buzz” at the World Cup stadium is a great example and microcosm of Social Media Marketing.  It is all about making contact, building relationships, establishing value, entertainment, credibility and trust. I won’t take the analogy much further, but you get the point.   In World Cup Soccer, strangely, the game and rules can change– at the whim of the referee!  In business these days, the referee is the customer and they are in control. It’s a competitive landscape and the voice of the consumer/customer has never been so applicable.

Today’s business owner must recognize that the rules have changed and businesses are moving online for their marketing efforts, because the customer is online 24/7.  In the U.S. the average person spends a 1/4 of their online time on social media sites.

Savvy small businesses are getting online and making it easy and seamless for their customers to quickly obtain the information that they want, demand and, based on “social proof” from friends and trusted sources, are searching for using social media tools that are ready at hand on their laptops, desktop computers, and smart phones.

Did you know that at any given time, roughly 46% of people on social media sites are viewing those sites through a mobile device?  Let’s assume you have determined that part of your target market is within that demographic—you’ll get measurable value (ROI) when you maximize the power of Social Media.

Gone are the easy days of just have a marketing strategy that used Twitter and Facebook ? it’s now about being responsive with a measured and professional response, it’s about being there, easy to contact and not hidden behind some corporate curtain; and certainly not a robotic or “corporate speak” response!  It’s about solving customer issues and responding in real time.  The tools are now many and varied and tailored to your message and presenting you as transparent and dedicated. With all of your responsibilities running the business, paying the bills, ordering the product, and bringing sales, it is virtually impossible to also manage your social media marketing needs and strategy. That’s where I come in and can help your take your online marketing efforts to the next level!

Get your business a blog.  Setting up a blog is one of the easiest, cheapest and most effective ways to promote your business and expand your customer base.

Blog = High ROI

However, just setting the blog up will not be enough to get the dramatic results and profits that everyone ultimately wants.

Here are 3 ways you can use your blog to build and promote your business:

1. Keep People Informed

Particularly in today’s economy, if you don’t correspond, people will assume you’re gone.

Make sure everyone knows you’re around and ready to leap into action whenever they need you by posting updates, tips and even sales information on your blog.

2. Develop a Rapport

People are more likely to work with people they feel an affinity for.  – Maria Gudelis, VP Social Media

However, you probably don’t have time to develop a meaningful friendship with every potential client.

However, corresponding via a blog – especially if you allow user comments and occasionally respond to them – develops a feeling of trust between you and your readers.

When it’s time for them to find someone to work with in your business arena, you will already be a trusted name for them.

3. Amp Up Sales

Feeling down about your bottom line? Get the attention of all your customers at once and ramp up your sales with a great insider’s deal for your blog readers.

Readers will feel special, and those considering work already will probably jump at the chance to get your bargain.

In the space of just a few minutes of posting, you’ve boosted your business and every reader feels positive about you and wants to work with your company.

If you are looking for ways to economically target internet traffic and promote your business online, launching a YouTube.com video marketing campaign is one of the cheapest and easiest ways to generate massive traffic to your website.

Video is Easy!

While this is exciting in itself, the really exciting thing about online video marketing on YouTube.com and other video sites, is that videos posted on these sites rank extremely well in the search engines.

In short, by posting a free video on YouTube.com, you can take advantage of the immense size and search engine power of that site to boost your own website and your own business profile on and offline. – Maria Gudelis

YouTube.com recently announced that it shows over 100 million videos each day. Imagine if you were reaching only a tiny portion of that crowd of viewers, say much less than one percent. You could still potentially expose your business to over 5000 viewers a day!

Can you image if 5000 people saw your sales message each and every day?

Designing videos for free posting on YouTube and.com and other online video services is one of the most effective ways to create highly targeted advertising for your business and services without spending a fortune on promotional materials.
