Social Media Tips for Business Owners -

Social Media Tips for Business Owners - No matter where I go, I find myself talking to business owners about social media. Literally, I can’t shut up! They ask, “What’s with Twitter, I can’t figure it out?” Or, they say, “I don’t have time for social media. How do you do it?” That’s all it takes, and off I go, explaining how social media isn’t rocket science, but it’s not intuitive, either. I start ticking off all kinds of tips and tricks to help make it easier to make social media marketing work for his or her business. For months, I’ve been asking myself, “How can I tap into my passion about social media to help more people?” And, “How can I offer overwhelming value, but keep it affordable, so even new entrepreneurs can get onboard and it’s valuable for people who have a good start, but could benefit from some easy tweaks?” I want to provide something that’s so amazing, it’s a no-brainer for every business owner. I think I’ve finally figured it out! Most business owners need a helping hand. Think about it: Wouldn’t it be incredible to have someone to ask the  you can’t quite figure out how to upload that photo to Twitter? Or, to be able to ask an expert if your tweet looks good, or if you’re going to embarrass yourself by publishing it? YES! I WANT TO LEARN MORE What about when you want to decide the best hashtag to use for something you post? Who can help? How about if the person there to hold your hand (virtually) just happens to be someone  CNN,  The Wall Street Journal,  Fox Business and  Forbes  ask when they have questions about social media? Learn everything from big-picture strategy to technical know how: Choose the best social networks to connect with your customers and clients. Save time while you stay top-of-mind for people who need to know about you. Leverage social media marketing to build relationships and increase awareness of your brand. Inspire trust, influence buying decisions and make more money. Look smarter than your competition. Get it all done faster so you don’t waste time! Sound good? Social media constantly morphs and changes. (Have you noticed how often LinkedIn changes its interface? If you’re confused, it’s not you, it’s them!) A kickstart is great, but you’re too busy doing your work to keep up with the latest and greatest on social media.  You could spend weeks or months trying to unravel social media’s complexities, only to find out your favorite network just got an overhaul and it’s back to square one for you. So, this program isnt based on feeding you a bunch of hour-long webinars. Who really watches all those webinars, anyway? Isn’t it better to have your questions addressed directly?
