Social Media Marketing in Colorado Springs

Let's be real, social media marekting in Colorado Springs means more than just Facebook and Twitter.  Map applications play a key role in social media, if people can't find your business, your business will not live up to its full potential. Today, many people are using not just Google, Yahoo and Bing maps, but also applications on their phones and GPS units.  It's actually rather ironic how a business owner will use their phone, their Facebook page, as well as search engines to find information they need.  And yet, they've forgotten to make sure their customers/clients can find them in the same manner.
 
Those that do forget are missing out on a great way to capitalize on not just their personal friends, but also, the friends of friends as well as all the applications available on a phone today. Most people travel a bit, and that means that at any time they may look to an application on their phone for your type of business.

If you have not updated your business lately, you won't show up.  Or, potential customers may get the wrong information about you and give up trying to find you.  Business today is not just about offering great products and/or services; it's about capitalizing on all of the information gateways available to you and your customers.  Can your business be found?

Facebook 101 ~ What Colorado Springs Businesses Need To Know About Facebook

Here is a great article about Facebook.  Check it out!

Today, there’s no doubt about it: Facebook is the most popular social network in America. Not only do Americans spend more time on Facebook than on Google, but Facebook accounts for a full 25% of all U.S. pageviews as well. And with over 500 million active users – and more joining every day – there’s a good chance many of your existing and prospective customers are already sharing status updates, comments, photos, videos and more on the site. So it’s crucial that your small business get its fair share of all that visibility and engagement. One of the best ways to do this is with Facebook advertising, which has some unique qualities that distinguish it from traditional search engine marketing or display advertising:

1.      Robust targeting helps you zoom in on the ideal consumer.

One of the top reasons to advertise your small business on Facebook has to do with the targeting based on the profile data Facebook users provide about themselves. The same way you can target banner ads on certain websites to display to users by age, gender and location, you have the added benefit of running your ad on a site with a heavy amount of daily traffic and stickiness (meaning people stay on the site instead of wandering off).

How Relevancy Effects Social Media In Colorado Springs

Social media in Colorado Springs is most effective when you understand the who, what, when and why of social targeting.  Choosing the right social media venue for your business is key. 

"Social media has come of age. Marketers now have the ability to augment their traditional marketing approaches with rich behavioral and activity-based targeting that should increase marketing ROI significantly.

However, businesses are facing an uncomfortable truth: There are no “best practices” for measuring a successful social media campaign. Crowd behavior is dynamic and context-specific, and it is difficult, if not impossible, to build a “one size fits all” solution."
