Social Media is the "new, hot, thing". And most of us, from a business perspective, are trying to figure out how it plays into our business and marketing plans. Although I am FAR from having any real answers on the subject, I am at least, starting to try and get a grip on it for my business, Knitability.
First, I recently discovered that Knitability already had a Facebook page, I just needed to claim it. Next I needed a graphic which you see here. Then I needed to add some content which often comes from my blog posts.
Apparently, the trick is to try and have everything "tie together". Links from my blog to the Facebook page, Facebook to my website and then back around again. It sounds relatively simple, but in fact is not so easy to do.
And then you can add Twitter and LinkedIn and Ravelry and photo sites and it just gets more complicated. So how is it going -- I am not really sure, but I still think the concept is good. So check out my page, give me some feedback and we will see how it goes!! Wish me luck!

Good luck! It's enough for me to keep up with blogging and Ravelry. lol.
ReplyDeletePersonally, I find all this social networking stuff pretty overwhelming, and I hardly do any of it. How can anyone keep up with everything they want to? I can't even keep up with the blogs that I like to read. (Oh, as I typed that I realized what I was saying and where.) Maybe it's because I read slowly and thoroughly. I've never been good at skimming; it always feels to me like I'm doing a disservice to the writer.
