3. WHAT IS SOCIAL MEDIA MARKETING?
Social media marketing (SMM) uses social media portals to positively influence
consumers toward a website, company, brand, product, service, or a person.
Typically, the end goal of social media marketing is a “conversion,” such as the
purchase of a product, subscription to a newsletter, registration in an online
community, or some other desirable consumer action.

4. WHY IS SOCIAL MEDIA PRESENCE IMPORTANT ?

SMM is the new entrant in the world of marketing. To keep the pace with today’s
competitive environment, it is important to use this technique of marketing

Now-a-days everything is just a click away. Consumers are more internet-friendly
and they believe in saving their time.

A good reputation can be used to buy cooperation from others, even from people
we have never met.

5. 3 REASONS WHY WE LOVE SOCIAL MEDIA
1. Relationships - Social media isn’t just tweeting and posting! Keep that in mind. It
is an extension of your brand, your mission and your values. It is meant to support
your company, reinforcing your reputation, products, service and commitment to your
customers. Build relationships in and around your social channels, showcasing your
desire to serve your audience. These relationships are the foundation of your brand’s
reputation, success and bottom-line. Build the trust and see the return.
2. Brand Advocates- Each consumer is connected and has a voice – they will share
their testimonials and experiences with the world, so it is your job to make it a
positive one. Pay attention to them, understand their pain points and give them viable
solutions.
3. Global Communities (Communities Create Markets)- One of the greatest
opportunities of social media marketing is to create your community, your network all
over the world, not just in your backyard or down the street. You can interact with
customers all over the world without ever needing to leave your office.
