Editor's Notes
- Research- Determine where your marketplace tends to gather online. Use Google Alerts & Google Reader to get a sense of the sites that your marketplace is using. Myspace, Facebook, & Twitter are currently the most popular Social Media sites, however make sure to do the necessary research not only on your marketplace, but also your competition and your industry. Lastly commit to a certain amount of time to social media everyday. Social Media is about relationships and they take time to build.
- 2 Setup- Every site has its profile requirements and protocols so make sure you are familiar with what it takes to complete the entire profile. Take 5-10 mins to look at existing profiles so that you get a sense of what creating a complete profile entails and what a good profile looks like. They generally tend to request your name, location, age, photo, website, hobbies, books, etc. Make your profile reflect your brand either personal or professional. Also make sure that the profile highlights your expertise and has links back to your main website and an easy way to contact you.
- If You Have All of This Information ReadyCreating Profiles for Your Sites Will Be a Breeze(Hint: If you make usernames, passwords, and email addresses the same it will help you stay on top of all things Social Media)Do you want to use your name or use company name for all?Do you have a Google email you would like to use? Do you have a yahoo email? Do you have an avatar picture? Do you have a tagline? Do you have a sort description of you or your profile?
- Listen- This is one of the most essential phases because if skipped or done wrong it can dramatically hinder your brand and/or reputation. Since each site has its own method of communication, it's critical to follow the communication protocol of the social media tool you select. So take time to learn the proper communication style, the language used, and the tone of the group or site.
- Contribute -The best way to establish your creditability and reputation within any social media site is to focus first on providing consistent value. Each site is different, but as a rule of thumb to follow regarding sharing your recommendations is for each link to one of your products/services you should promote at least 5 products/services created by someone else.
- Relationship -The essence of Social Media is relationships. Since people do business with people they know, like and trust, social media is the ideal and fastest method to expedite the relationship building process. The key is to leverage the social media site for information about the person, that's why it's important to have a complete profile. Just as you will be looking at their profile, they will be looking at your profile. The next step is to email or chat with them to see if there are areas where you could assist them or develop a mutually beneficial relationship. And lastly make sure to attend as many live events as you can because nothing beats meeting in person.
- Setup Gmail/Google Alerts- Use Gmail as the primary e-mail account for all things Social Media. It will collect, store & consolidate updates from all social media websites in a single location for easy viewing. Use Google Alerts to stay up to date on your industry, your brand, the competition and your niche.
- Create Social Networking Profile-Facebook- Use Facebook to network with other likeminded individuals. Focus first on a personal profile and later on a profile for you business. It is setup to easily store information in a variety of formats i.e. text, photos, videos, and/or audio.
- Create MicroBlog Account-Twitter -Use Twitter to listen to what your market place, competition, prospects and clients are saying. Initially focus on just following and listening to people and/or businesses. Later we will focus on contributing to the conversations. *Note that conversations are limited to usually 140 characters and generally submitted by text message, instant message, and/or the web and is ideal for updates while mobile.
