I am still amazed by the impact of social media. There are so many social outlets that it is impossible to belong to everyone, so you have to focus on a few to make a real impact. For me, I have found that Facebook is phenomenal because not only am I connecting with friends and family I have not seen in years, but it has become an excellent marketing tool for my business, Cute Beltz. I knew people needed belts for toddlers and kids up to age six, but the response through Facebook has been amazing. I often think, where would I be without Facebook? My business has grown immensely because of this platform. Not only is the Fan page invaluable, the Facebook marketing is amazing! Facebook is a great tool for getting the word out about a small business.
I have also found twitter to be another tool that I just love. I have met many people that I KNOW I would have never met in this lifetime. Not only are people willing to engage in conversation with a perfect stranger, they often check in on you to see how things are going. I find it really wonderful when I say, “Good Morning” and I receive replies from my regular’s and new friends. Good feeling to be acknowledged.
Blogging is also a great outlet for meeting people and learning about others lives. I am really digging Blog Frog, to be able to view so many intriguing stories through different communities, is quit cool. I am still a novice at blogging, but working hard to understand how everything connects. I am always up for a challenge!
I also use Linkedin, great for business connections, www.socialmoms.com (formerly twittermoms) and my newbie Savor The Success, a lot of great women doing their thang!
I am grateful for how the internet has exploded and my business thanks you too!
Keep tweeting, FB’ing, etc. because we are bound to meet. I look forward to meeting you somewhere on the world wide web, PEACE!
Join US, we LOVE to meet new FABULOUS people, just like you. Have a great day!
