> Are You Using ratesbeater for Marketing or Social Media Marketing
>
> Although social media marketing is hot, many online marketers and offline
> retailers are having difficulty getting traction with their ratesbeater
> efforts. The biggest problem is that SMM can be used as an interactive form
> advertising.
> For retailers and offline businesses, this can be particularly difficult as
> interactive advertising is not a part their marketing or advertising mix for
> the past few years. They ran their TV and radio commercials, placed print ads
> in magazines and newspapers, and printed flyers. Then they mailed them. The
> direct contact with prospects and customers was left to front-line sales
> staff, while marketing departments remained hands-off, away from the public.
> It's safer to have your marketing department handle
> [ratesbeater|https://rates-beater.com/] than have it handled by individual
> departments or retail locations.
> Experiential online marketers might have an advantage because they have used
> e-mails, ezines, and blogs in a lot their advertising activities. All of them
> already have an interactive element to them. Many are still making the same
> mistakes as the novices. While they know the basics, this group isn't putting
> in the time to master SMM.
> Social media is key to success in interactive web properties such as Google+,
> Facebook and Twitter. Ask anyone who promotes a product online or who is
> promoting offline businesses on social media and they will tell you that they
> use it. But the truth is, they only post there. Ask them how many times they
> click the "Like" button on Facebook or the "+1" button on Google. Also ask
> how often you comment on others' posts. You'll get a blank stare most of all.
> Engage your audience to succeed with your social media marketing. Interact
> with your prospects and industry leaders. Be friendly, supportive, and
> helpful on both your personal pages and in the relevant groups on Google+ and
> Facebook. Marketers know that people prefer to deal directly with people they
> trust. So use social media to build real relationships and keep your brand
> and name top of mind for prospects. Use Twitter to respond and retweet, and
> thank others who retweet you tweets. You can also use the FriendFeed,
> Pinterest, and LinkedIn 'comments’ features.
> You need to be careful about how much time you spend on social media. They
> can quickly become a time sponge that makes it impossible to get everything
> done. You can stop by them at the beginning of your workday to catch up on
> what happened while you were away, and then close them down. You're good to
> go for another 10 minutes at lunchtime, and another 10 at the end. You don't
> need to keep the social media sites open in multiple browser tabs unless you
> are using them for customer service.
> Think of your site as a 'club' or a golf course. You're there for fun, to
> socialize, and possibly make some big deals. Social media marketing is no
> different. You won't get any business from those you don't like at the club
> or on a course.
