How can I use social media tools and media venues, and how can they help my

business?

Social Media Marketing (SMM). In nutshell, SMM combines:

• Placing unique, newsworthy, intriguing copywriting on social networks, online communities, blogs, and any other online co-operative media sources.

• Using social network services like Twitter and Facebook to increase traffic and enhance your overall web presence.

• Advertising directly on social media sites, and implementing viral-share marketing strategies that spreads throughout the web, email, and by word of mouth, or establishing your presence on niche social media sites that are focused on your business, brand product, music or service that you wish to advertise.

Social Media Marketing has FIVE vital aspects:

1. Create a Buzz!

Get a buzz started about your business, service, or music that attracts attention. We're not talking about just a sales pitch, it is about being interesting, reaching out and appealing to people on a human level. Posting exciting tweets, buzz creating news, compelling blog entries, or videos that attract attention and prompt reaction of the user. What happens? Those types of postings become viral or share items by the user. Buzz is what causes Social Media Marketing to work.

Social Media Marketing has FIVE vital aspects:

2. Be Human!

You are not speaking as “the company”, but as a person. When your message is presented on a human level, it is then replicated via user to user contact (shared or spread virally). This helps considerably in trimming costs of traditional ads or promoting your product or services through press releases. The user does the work for you. Also, your message should not always be about a brand product, music or service. Some of the most successful SMM viral campaigns have had the greatest success through an amusing, fun or captivating story or message. Then you include an incidental company logo or tagline with the message. That is still getting your name out there, right? Correct!
