Social Media Marketing

You’ve heard the phrase “one size fits all.”  We can confidently say that in the world of social media, that’s just not true!  Our team brings the knowledge, expertise and experience necessary to craft a solution that makes sense for YOU! And while our clients come from a number of different industries, we offer a specialized expertise related to hotels, restaurants and colleges & universities.

Design

Our team of professionals will help you find the best ways to use social media as a component of your overall marketing strategy.  Keeping in mind your target market and marketing goals, we identify your current social media and online presence and evaluate those assets against the fifteen different “categories” that we’ve identified to make up the social media sphere: social networking, microblogging, publishing, photo sharing, audio, video, virtual worlds, syndication, mobile marketing, social bookmarking, crowdsourcing, location-based services, feedback communities, web and social search and multimedia collaboration tools.

A comprehensive social media strategy should identify appropriate platforms in each of these.  Depending on a multitude of factors including industry, target demographics and practicality, some categories may be unnecessary for your particular social media strategy.

Once the strategy has been developed, our team can then implement that strategy for you.  After implementation, we can either provide training for your team on how to manage the tools for maximum effectiveness or we can provide a turnkey management solution for you!
