Using Social Media to Grow Your Business

No longer is social media a "fad" or just something that is "fun" to use.  It has turned to becoming a necessity for businesses to create their brand and successfully reach a whole new audience.  For startups and new businesses these tools are an essential part of telling the world their story!

Don't get caught up in thinking you have to master ALL of the social media and online marketing tools. You DON'T! 

Whether it's Twitter, Facebook, Google+, LinkedIn, Instagram or another site, you want to focus on one or two platforms, and become consistent with using it every day. It may be a new promotion for the week, a picture of your latest creation, or just a fun TIP for your followers, but staying consistent will be the key to growing your social media following. 

Businesses use social media to run contests, interact with their current customers, solve problems with orders, and even raise awareness for events you may be having for your business.  Social media is not where you should stake all your chips, but it IS an essential tool. It will multiply your one to one and referral marketing because of the powerful "Share", "Retweet", "Like", buttons of the various social networks, your current customers can very quickly share their positive experience about your product/service to THEIR FRIENDS who you never could reach before! 

Now that is powerful!!
