I am working on quite a few social media projects that are just getting started. There seems to be a lot of information about this subject but I am approaching it from a practical get something done approach.
It is a bit overwhelming all of the possible avenues and approaches you can take. I read quite a bit about establishing a social media plan. I am in favor of that for sure. However, there comes a time when you need to JUMP in and just DO IT
One of my very favorite clients met with me recently. She was wanting to get into the social media area but like so many of us just never found the time. We met over coffee and decided to take a short-term approach. The first task I gave her was to start accepting friend requests from Facebook. This is not that simple to someone just starting. So that’s what she did and now she is posting pictures on her facebook and all kinds of great things. Don’t feel bad if you are not on the web every day posting though. I personally like to know what is going on in your life but like you I am busy.
Another cool project involves blogs. We are starting a new blog for a business that sells dietary supplements. Their current website was developed using WordPress – now we are moving into the world of blogs. At this point we are just setting up a separate blog but we could as we get more comfortable incorporate the blogs in the website. Will have to see about that.
Good luck in your social media and start simple and grow your efforts.
