12. Social Media What is it? The social media ecosystem is all of the social networks- user generated content, blogs, audio, video, music, news, photos, tweets- working together with digital technology. The Internet’s the number-one communications channel ever built—it’s the printing press plus the phone. In terms of engagement, social networking allows companies to provide an access point to engage in a meaningful discussion instead of a corporate pitch: What do you think about this? What’s something you want to see? What’s a mistake we’ve made? There’s an art to channeling conversation into a meaningful activity for marketers. By committing to—and participating in—some form of social engagement, companies are putting a face to their brands.

13. Social Media The caveat is that merely being involved won’t save you. Companies that are early adopters of social media—and getting results—are also likely the ones that have been successful in their overall marketing strategies. Social media has the potential to pick up where traditional marketing drops off. Most of the time interest wanes immediately after the sale. Reaching out to the customer to follow up on a purchase not only reinforces customer service but helps the organization better understand the life of its product.

15. If social media is so compelling and full of potential, why is it so hard for businesses to adopt? It’s the change in the power structures that social networks can impose that cause many organizations to shirk away from any engagement at all. Social strategy development, in other words, begins with change management.
16. Most social media participants recognize relevancy is key. No one wants to follow a company that twitters ads or posts links to canned marketing spielsMarketing | Social Media | SEO/SEM | Website Design | Branding | Video | Photography

56. Share deals on Facebook and Foursquare. Use Facebook and Foursquare to share a few deals, coupons, and special events. Whenever a fan takes action on your page or registers for an event, it’s instantly shared their network of friends.
57. Bring fans together on YouTube. If your fans are creating and sharing some great videos about you on YouTube, create a channel where you can compile the videos, offering a central place to see them all. An example would be the chef giving an explanation of the night special.Marketing | Social Media | SEO/SEM | Website Design | Branding | Video | Photography
