Blogs are a good way to drive traffic to your web site, establish you as

your credibility).
Like many marketing methods, if you are going to do it yourself, you really have to
like doing it and want to do it for reasons other than marketing.
Guy Kawasaki Explains How Entrepreneurs Are Getting Social Media All Wrong:
âMy recommendation for SEO is very simple:
Itâs Write Good Stuff.
In my mind, Google is in the business of finding good stuff. It has thousands of the
smartest people in the world, spending billions of dollars to find the good stuff. All
you have to do is write the good stuff; you don't need to trick it. Let Google do its
job and you do your job."

43. Images â Pictures Worth a
1000 Words
Promote
â˘While Instagram and Pinterest both are great tools to assist in the marketing of your products, their purpose can
extend far beyond a catalog for your business. If you manufacture your own goods, consider giving your customers a
peek at the process. This can be anything from the equipment you use to the design and building process. Your
customers will appreciate getting a chance to see your products outside of the standard retail setting.
Share Company News and Updates
â˘Whether you want to unveil new products or make other business related announcements, everyone knows that a
picture is worth a thousand words. Consider using creative means to convey your news to your customers. They will
more than likely be receptive to news conveyed through non-traditional mediums.
Show
â˘While itâs important for any business to put faces behind the company name, this concept is especially vital for
smaller ventures. Your potential customers want to see that you are tied into the community, and giving them a look
at your offices and your staff is a great way to show who you are. If possible, try to capture the mood of your office
through the pictures you post as well.
Connect
â˘Your customers want to be kept in the loop regarding all aspects of your business, including promotional offers, new
product offerings and any special events you may be attending or sponsoring. Image are a great way to quickly
share this information with them, be it through a promotional flyer or a look-in at the event itself.
Encourage
â˘Encourage customers to pin sightings of your products on their pages or hold contests for the most creative pictures
taken. Whatever you do, just make sure you give people reasons to keep checking back.

46. Pinterest
1. When setting up your Pinterest account, add
descriptive, keyword-rich text to your "About" description.
This will help your Pinterest account show up in search
engine results. Include your location as well.
2. To get the most visibility for your pins, connect your
Pinterest account to your other social media
outlets, such as Facebook and Twitter. Be sure to add
your company's home page URL.
3. Name your pin boards after your business
type, products, and services. For instance, if you sell
women's sports attire and equipment, create pin boards
for such topics as women's running shoes or best yoga
mats.
4. Follow other Pinterest users in your local area and/or
field of expertise. Comment on and share their pins;
they'll often return the favor. Endorse the pins others
share by clicking the " Like" button.
5. Develop an infographic related to your area of
expertise and distribute it on Pinterest. Infographics are
highly popular these days and the best ones tend to get
reposted and shared widely.
6. Pay close attention to Pinterest users who get the
most likes and repins. Follow them and learn from what
they do.
7. Unlike Facebook or Google+, there's currently no
distinction between people and brands on Pinterest.
You'll get more traction if you approach the site more as
a person, less as a brand.
8. Don't get too self-referential. Pinterest is about sharing
passions; it's not for talking about yourself (a la
Facebook). Don't get blatantly salesy, either. Just share
interesting, funny, quirky, compelling images; the traffic
to your site (and sales) will likely follow.
9. Post pictures on your own site or blog first, then pin
those pictures on Pinterest. The pinned images will
include a link back to your site, which will help drive
traffic there.
10. Make sure to post a Pinterest follow button on your
site. It's easy to do; just copy a snippet of HTML
code, which you can get from Pinterest's Goodies page.
11. Be creative. Curate the quirky, odd, funny pictures
that have some relevance to your brand, products, or
services, and that appeal to women.
12. Serve as a resource. Share content that other users
will love sharing. For example, a local bakery "could
create boards for cupcake recipes, frosting tips, taste
combinations, decorating ideas, party ideas, personal
favorites, cake disasters, wedding planning and other
topics their followers might be interested in.

47. Slide decks
Why Bother?
⢠Besides the fact that itâs smart to regularly mix up your content offerings
(people get bored with the same stuff over and over again), slide decks
have several inherent benefits, including:
⢠Easy to make and view - There are a variety of slide deck creation
programs, and several sites where you can upload and view them.
⢠Include multiple types of content (audio, written, and visual) â Allows
for better explanations and more points for engagement.
⢠Downloadable â Viewers can download and reuse your material (nearly
everyone would rather use an awesome slideshow made by someone
else than create their own), which means more brand exposure.
⢠Shareable â In addition to downloading, people can link to your
presentation and share it via social networks. This helps you reach a
much larger audience and increases backlinks.

⢠Keep the slides clean.
⢠Use sans serif font. It is easy to see.
⢠Make sure everyone can see your text on the slides.
⢠Balance images and text.

⢠The biggest fail in presenting is saying, âI apologize this slide
is hard to read.â

eligibility. Individuals can play different roles among a wide variety of
relationships.

Sentiment.

issue. Sentiment answers one dimension of the question of âWhyâ.

So weâve talked about how to share, but WHAT should you share?Content doesnât just mean blog posts, it can be anything that anything that adds value to your community. It can be news articles, white papers, daily special offerings, sale notices, videos, other tweets, blog comments or discussions, links to your web site, radio/tv/print ads, or cute pictures of kittens.The key is to understand is that people buy, sell, trade and discuss your brand based on the content you provide them with that adds value to their day or makes the job or decision-making easier. How do you find great content? Letâs explore the many sources.

It can be news articles, white papers, daily special offerings, sale notices, videos, other tweets, blog comments or discussions, links to your web site, radio/tv/print ads, or cute pictures of kittens.
Weâll walk through the key elements of an evolved social strategy today. Now, we keep in mind that we have folks here today from both ends of the spectrum â those just starting out with social media, and some who have been participating on social channels for several years. As such, weâll try our best to
There are many ways to organize and source content, but its helpful if you have a simple framework to work with. We manage it by categorizing our sources of content in this way, not just to have a guideline for discovery of new content or reuse of existing content, but this can also be important when it comes to our campaign and content analytics, just like we categorize other marketing efforts into buckets like: print, radio, tv, etc. The three main categorizations we use are:Internal â content that we âownâ or have created ourselves or for our organizationExternal â content that is created/owned by other individuals or organizationsEvolving Content â these are often most readily found via social channels where trends can surface in seconds. An example of this might be a local snow storm. If it will impact your business, this is content you might want to share on the fly. Likewise, you might be attending an local event like this summit and will see interesting trends bubbling up through the social streams as people attend each session and the keynote. Evolving content is usually unplanned and moves rapidly through social channels. We share content with our audience because we all have a common interest. We can expect that the same theme will be covered in various sources of content we curate or discover. Content from all sources should be integrated to deliver your message to your audience to effectively meet your goals AND theirs.
A content calendar is your roadmap to help you determine âWhat should I postâ.Having a content calendar will provide you with guidance and reminders to share all the relevant information that you want on your products, services, industry and more.You can have two types of content calendars. One is a larger roadmap of promotions and special events throughout the year to highlight. The other is a weekly calendar that can give structure to your exact daily content such as 3rd party links, photos, a Fan of the Week, etc.
Determining factors:Your audience, what do they expect â can Coke get away with an iPhone video or do we expect more from themYour budget â if you canât afford a high definition video production, what can you reasonably do with your budget â some basic and essential equipment really isnât that expensive and your community may have facilities for you to access.
With a plan, team and willing subjects youâll be surprised how easy it is to produce a videoWhat is the most important concept/idea to cover in your video (no more than 1 or 2)Develop a list of participants (your on air/voice over folks)Write your interview questions or script in advance â itâs okay to just do bullet points, ensure everyone is on point.Create and stick to a schedule for the shoot and advise participants â if you only need them for 20 minutes, let them know2.
