Why use Social media marketing
why, social, media, marketing

 VISIT WEBSITE (learn more)

Social media marketing is coming into play for many who have not used the concept before. As internet marketers we are looking for people who have and interest in and are willing to join us in our business. Article writers are finding they need to increase readership and are using social media to draw people to their work also.

Twitter is now something people hear daily. Using the platform properly will create interest in you giving each person more people to talk to about their business or articles. Those who don’t belong to facebook are leaving money on the table. Businesses and article writers who are not using IBOtoolbox are not optimizing their earnings either.

Social media also helps with one way back links to articles you have written. Most social sites have a high PR ranking which add value to you. This will bring search engine traffic who are searching for your information. A few weeks ago we joined a contest on facebook someone told us about, we won, but are still waiting for our “prize”. You can run your own contest to get people involved with your business. Those who have area’s of expertise can offer internet services as “prizes”.

At technology has changed people are using it more than other media. Businesses find running a contest and just letting people know where they are will increase visitors to their business be it a store downtown or an internet business.

Because more and more people are getting social, using these programs and for many different reasons. The ability to connect this way can create an interest in you. For most in internet marketing the only difference is you. Many other people are selling the same product or service and using either a copy of the same site or something very similar. Showing others what makes you different is why they would join you instead of the thousands of others who are doing the same thing.

At the moment social marketing is the big thing. As the internet evolves this might change but it is unlikely because people relate to people. With this media available to everyone now it is more likely to increase than decrease. With more and more people looking to the internet as a way to make a living the use of social media is only going to increase at least in the foreseeable future. Mom and pop stores are finding the only way they can compete is by creating websites and drawing people to both their business and their websites.

The reason brick and mortar businesses are moving to an online presence is the methods they are currently using are not working. With a website optimized you can only reach those who search the niche you are in. Then only if you can maintain first page ranking.

People who are writing to earn are learning the value of social media marketing. We are seeing more and more writers putting articles up about social sharing. The smart ones realize not only they but the others involved can gain. Which is why those who use social media marketing are sharing their idea with others.

We all know the importance of sharing what we know. Sore fingers from typing hours a day show us we are doing the right thing. Thanks Carolyn for dropping by twice. The smile on two faces made the work worthwhile.
 
Carolyn Coleman-Grady   492 day(s) ago
Dennis great blog as usual, wishing you a fantastic day.
 
Dennis Thorgesen    492 day(s) ago
Thanks Don and James. We are finding that using social media is giving us a greater reach. IBOtoolbox is considered part of our social media plan. Social sharing by others has increased readership of even optimized articles.
 
Don Sabelhaus    492 day(s) ago
Thank you for sharing your knowledge on social media marketing Dennis. T&L
 
Dennis Thorgesen    497 day(s) ago
The most important lesson we learned is social Media marketing is about creating interest in (us). Not our products or services. Those will change in time but we will still be on the internet. This has been true for those who have been working on the internet in the past, and we don't see it changing.
 
Dave Saunders   498 day(s) ago
Agreed Dennis social media marketing is a great way to advertise your business and if used effectively could increase traffic and exposure for any online marketer. Thanks for sharing this valuable information.
 
Dennis Thorgesen    498 day(s) ago
Thanks Terri and Angela. We try hard not to publish anything which isn't on the money. It is true though the more you learn the more you find you don't know.
 
Terri Pattio    498 day(s) ago
Dennis this is on the money information, and this is going out to the universe my friend. ~Terri Pattio - MLM Coach/Mentor with a servant's heart.

Having learned from "the best" we not only have a fan page we are integrating a website with it. After learning from our mistakes we have changed our methods of reaching people with social media. It has really changed things for us.
 
Don Sabelhaus    499 day(s) ago
Thanks for posting Dennis, once again you grace us with your knowledge of the internet. I'm amazed at the number of people I spoken to here at IBO who do not have fan pages for their business. T&L
 
Dennis Thorgesen    499 day(s) ago
Thanks again Carolyn. Thanks Paul and Troy also. We are truly amazed by the many people who are saying "I am not earning enough" both brick and mortar and internet business people. We have asked more than once to see their social media marketing and they show us a website, that's all.
