Odd Dog’s Recommendation

Social Media is now the #1 activity on the web and is too big of a market for anyone to ignore.  However with Social Media, you MUST LISTEN FIRST, then work up a creative way to sell.  If you jump into it without an understanding of how the communities work, they will ignore your blatant sales efforts and tell all their friends to use a competitor.  Social Media can be a golden egg for your business, don’t drop it!

Don’t use social media as a way to cram your message down the throat of as many people as possible.

Do share entertaining/informative stuff related to your product/service/industry that people will enjoy/laugh/share with others.

A Little About Social Media

What it is
Social Media is a new generation of websites that allow people to connect with friends, businesses, groups and places and easily share updates with their community.  Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and LinkedIn are some of the more popular names you have probably heard of, but there are hundreds more.

What it is for
Social Media is the new word of mouth.  If you are upfront with your customers and offer a great product, service or price, you can leverage the social media community for massive word of mouth referrals.

Why it’s awesome
Done properly, a well planned and executed social media campaign will attract millions of viewers and provide you massive value on a budget vastly smaller than traditional marketing methods.

What’s the catch?
Social media can be unpredictable and being able to make quick adjustments is your only security.  Be original.  Be creative.  Be bold.  Be entertaining.

The Numbers say
In special cases, social media drives more traffic to websites than search engines.
