This is done by coupling a sound PR
and marketing strategy with a social media campaign in order to get your
message out to millions of potential customers quickly, efficiently and
effectively.
Through the use of article PR,
blogs, micro-blogs, social networking sites, business networking sites, online
profiles and more, social media makes it possible to capitalize on the multitudes
of people online who are willing to share what you have to say with their
family, friends, co-workers and associates.
By providing a near instantaneous
response, social media has given the term “viral marketing” a whole new meaning
since one message sent out on a platform such as Twitter can literally reach
tens of thousands a readers in minutes.
But how do you capitalize on social
media?
According to the list of
2009's Top Small Business Trends
published in USATODAY.com, three of the top five spots
all involve how the Internet can be used by small business to win in this
struggling economy. The examples given include interactive Internet
actions that enable even small businesses to reach existing and potential
customers like never before; how blogs, online video and other online tools can
be used to create big marketing campaigns for much less than
"traditional" campaigns; and finally social networking tools such as
Facebook and countless more which can help a business owner not only
communicate with the public that buys their products/services but also find
potential connections to new opportunities.
The bare bones minimum to taking
advantage of online marketing and PR is a website and most of you reading this
have a website which is good, but is your website working for you? Can your
public easily find you on a search? When they do is the search engine
entry tasty enough to make them click? What about the competition? And how does
PR fit into the mix?
What if you could quickly and
substantially increase your presence on the Internet resulting in even a
handful of new clients? How much profit would those clients represent
compared to the cost of online campaigns versus traditional campaigns?
The key is PR. Public Relations
makes you and your products known and well thought of so that any marketing you
do is that much more effective. If you don't already have a well thought
out and planned Social Media PR campaign - get one!
It is a lot more than just blasting your
message blindly to all the social networks.
In 2009 you have to move faster.
The Internet moves at the speed of light and so must you if you are going
to keep up and beat not only your competition but also the economic crisis.
