Social Media Marketing

What is Social Media Marketing and Why do it?

Everyone markets for the same reason: they want more of something: more customers, more volunteers, more donors and members, but most of all, more time in the day. 50% of small business owners are using Facebook. Social Media Marketing is: building your social network fans, followers, and connections, using relevant and interesting content that allows you to reach and engage more people and drive more business. Now you can resourcefully apply new tools to acquire, connect, engage, and grow new customer relationships.  Social media marketing uses your Raving Fans to acquire and engage new customers, connect with prospects, and begin fostering deeper relationships. It makes sense to use your marketing resources wisely… with the people who count!

Promotional Products and Ad Specialties

BrandAwareness

Using promotional products and ad specialties creates brand awareness to your clients, prospects and yes even your employees. Even though 30% of the products used are hats, t-shirts, polos and other apparel .The list for the other 70% can almost seem endless, for the items you can use for your business. Executive gifts and giveaways like pens, pencil, key tags, mugs, water bottles, office, home and kitchen. The options are endless and cost effective ranging from under a dollar to $10.00. You have control on when or how they’re distributed and to whom you distribute to. MASS mdedia like tv, radio, newspapers, classifieds, and magazines don’t offer this type of control to the small business owner. After all, that is one of the reasons you started your own business isn’t it, to have more control over your own destiny. In the future we’ll discuss more on promotional products and ad specialties and how we at MCPROSAD can help you implement them into the marketing of your business.
