Social Media Marketing

What is Social Media Marketing?


Social Media Marketing is a method of promoting your brand (be it yourself, a product, a service, a charity, a company, or a music group) by strategically making your presence known across various social media networks (such as LinkedIn, Ryze, Ecademy, DirectMatches, MerchantCircle, MySpace, Facebook, Konnetcs, BizPrenuers, Digg, StumbleUpon, etc).

This may seem overly elementary but "making yourself known" is the key because each category of social media has a different and intricate method for effective promotion.

How can we assist you and your business?


Now you can get professional assistance with your Social Media Marketing!

Assist.com will create, modify, optimize and promote your Social Media Marketing channels for you and your business.

We will assist you with the direct management and promotion of your:

Social Networking Sites
Business Networking Sites
Social Bookmarking Sites
Collaborative Sites
Content Voting Sites
News Sharing Sites
Collaborative Directories
Audio Sharing Sites
Video Sharing Sites
Photo Sharing Sites
Blogs and Wiki Sites
Blog Directory Sites


You may not need or want all of these channels, or we may determine that just a subset of these channels will be effective for promoting and marketing your business.

What is important is how they are all integrated together and used effectively and efficiently. This is where most people fail with their Internet Marketing and Advertising.

Does this mean that I need to spend time creating all these sites?


No. The good news is that we do all of this work for you! We will do as much or a little as you need to get the ball rolling. You can outsource based on your needs and requirements. We can manage everything for you-- or just a piece of your overall strategy. Just let us know if your time is limited or your deployment time is critical.

You can drop by anytime to post new content, interact with your new friends, post to your blogs and continue to promote your business just like you have always done.

But at the "end of the day" your business will grow by leveraging the power of Social Media Marketing in an effective and economical way.

What about all the technology and computer geekdom?


If terms like RSS, XML, Feedburner, QuickTime, Podcast, Widget, Plugin, Syndication, Flash Objects, JavaScript and HTML scare you, then you can relax! Because we take care of all of this technology for you!

To effectively use all of these channels and make them work together, there is a great deal of technology involved. There is no way around that. But we are here to assist you and do it all for you!

What does all this cost?


Each customer and business have unique requirements and needs. Some want to grow fast and other want to grow slowly and in a controlled environment. Other customers may want to do some of the work themselves and outsource various parts of it.

That said, we can work with you to create a model that is best for you business, needs and budget.

Our "Hub and Spokes" approach to building and promoting your brand makes it easy and cost effective for you. You don't need to launch everything at once. And your advertising and marketing continues to grow month after month as we add new spokes to your network. This is part of the "viral method" to building your brand on-line.

How soon will I get results?


Social Media Marketing is not designed to immediately provide business but instead it provides the visibility your brand needs to ultimately convert fans into buyers. We often have clients say, "I don't think being on MySpace will help to sell my products or services".

The truth is that often they are correct. Having a commercial presence on MySpace (and various other sites) that provides great content to raise the awareness of your brand so that users remember your products and services provides you with a podium to share the benefits of your brand.

It is important to remember this essential concept: Social Media Marketing drives brand awareness which later translates into sales.

This concept applied to every business, organization and charity. It works equally well for an individual person, a business or an organization. Why do you think there are so many organizations and musical groups using MySpace? Why are there so many business owners using LinkedIn? Put "viral power" to work for your business too!

Where do I start?
