Building a Better Website:

3 Things that Destroy Marketing and Strategy

Depending on the type of commerce your business deals with, your website needs will vary. There is no one-size fits all for complete website construction.

Your Staff on Twitter – Communication Strategy

by Leave a Comment

Twitter has a lot to offer the local business, but it’s all about strategy. It took me a couple of years to figure out. Back then, no one really thought about using Twitter in the office interactively. Few are talking about it now.

Let’s say you operate a micro-business, maybe one person in the office and a two to five people off-site visiting Office Staffclients. By using Twitter tools like Tweetdeck, Hootsuite and SocialOomph, you can build a network of local followers that are very likely to need your services.

Why Should Your Company do This?

I believe the beauty in what Twitter offers local business is the mobility. You see it every day, people staring down at their phones to text, search or call. To do that effectively requires a compatible phone. Those phones aren’t cheap. I think that’s a strong argument for segmenting the population right there. First and foremost for most companies is building a client base of customers who can afford their  products or services. Marketing on a mobile platform increases the odds that your message is going out to that base.

The way to think about a press release has changed because the audience has enlarged – not gone away. Now you can submit a press release online and reap the benefits of great back links, online attention and sharing, and still reach journalists who are actively looking for leads and information.   [Read more…] about Do You Need a Media Release?

Grammatically Speaking: Business Blog Tips

Your blog isn’t under the same scrutiny as your other, more direct marketing methods. A blog is more of a place where your readers and potential customers can learn more about you before they purchase, as well as interact with you after the sale. A blog is designed for two-way communication, and that means it should be written more conversationally than articles, for example.  [Read more…] about Grammatically Speaking: Business Blog Tips
