Will Social Media Still Work for Small Business?

What Has Trump Shown Us about Marketing in 2016?

By Thomas R. Reich PhD

 

There is no question that you can still boost your small business sales, marketing and internet activity, through content marketing and social media networking. Even though there is a lot of talk about social media, content, SEO and networking having passed their prime, and you feel you just don’t have time to do it all, take a lesson from this season’s political primary.

social media network 2016 21

If you have been watching the news, and if you have not noticed the primaries you must have been very busy indeed, the candidates that are winning are not the ones that are spending the hundreds of millions on traditional advertising. Where Jeb Bush and Hillary Clinton spent an estimated 100,000,000 on TV and Radio spots, Donald  Trump and Bernie Sanders spent a fraction of that amount during the same period on Twitter, instagram and FaceBook, both winning the New Hampshire primary by better than double digit margins, though both widely considered the underdogs going in.

What can small business owners take away from this political experience of underdog victories? No I am not saying to bring politics into business, this is still a taboo, but it does outline that not only is social media not reaching its maturity, it has barely reached its stride!  We are just discovering that it really can win elections over traditional forms of advertising that has won consistently for 100 years, so what can it do for business.  Can social media help your small business compete with the giants of your industry?

So let’s start with the good old basics, and build from there. You have been told for years that Social Media is a silver bullet that will solve all your problems, it will not.  You have been told that SEO is the be all end all, it is not, and having a blog will bring you all the customers you need in and of itself, no it will not.  As in every evolution of business marketing history, nothing happens with out a plan, hard work and a lot of effort.  But we can help you direct that effort in more efficient ways, more effective ways to meet a changing market in today’s changing world.

 

Why do Businesses Fail?

Tax Deduction Tip 30

  1. Not enough people know they exist

  2. little or no social media networking

  3. They did not do enough to get the word out

  4. Did not work hard enough for brand recognition

  5. Did not remind the customer daily through social media networking why the business matters

  6. Did not Build a website that showcased their business as the expert in their specific niche market

 

So what is necessary for a small business to appear to be a player on equal footing with its larger more established competition in today’s new frontier of social media, content website driven, media market of millennia’s driven workforce web searchers? Well, to be honest, we aren’t all millennia’s and we don’t all have to be experts in the twitterverse to make a dent in what is happening with new market realities.  But as I said before, to be successful today, as it was in the past, it will take hard work, time and dedication.  Nothing is free, nothing is ever easy it is just done a bit differently today.

How social media and content marketing can work together in a network to promote small business

If you follow a few simple guidelines it can be a lot less expensive than it has been in the past for some real tangible success. But remember, if it did not take time, effort and had no cost associated with the marketing efforts, everyone would be successful without effort, and that has never been the case.  If you have been around as long as I have you know; “There is no such thing as a FREE lunch”, that said, many great deals have been made over one, so let’s get started.

A successful business must have a daily promotion habit, do at least one or more of the following each and every day as part of office routine of content marketing and social media:

How social media and content marketing can work together in a network to promote small business

  1. Write or post a new blog

  2. Tweet a timely question

  3. Do a radio interview

  4. Do a webcast or podcast

  5. Post an update on LinkedIn or blog to a group on LinkedIn

  6. Write a letter to the editor or comment on a major forum

  7. Link and share pictures, blog or news of your business on FaceBook page

  8. Do at least one thing that will publicize your product each day through social media networking

 

As you begin to develop a regular habit of content marketing and social media, you need to start to tailor your social media posts to exactly what you wish to achieve. You also need to have a plan and couple this plan with content that you post to your blog, which stays in line with the niche you are developing for your unique story, what makes you different within your market.  If you were a customer looking for what your provide, what information, answers and points of interest are you providing that would attract you to your product.

 

Other things to do on a regular basis:

How social media and content marketing can work together in a network to promote small business

  1. Contact 5 people a day that could help you publicize your product

  2. Give the social media network a hook to use to grab their audience (in the end you and your product do not matter to that media outlet, to the organization giving you the publicity, it’s how you can add interest to their show or blog, even their tweet stream, remember this!)

  3. Research what various factions of the social media network can put in their heading or intro; “Coming up________” that will help their audience to stay tuned in or check back. What about you or your product would cause this reaction, think of catchy phrases, make it easy to promote you or your product.

  4. Again, you need to come up with hooks, what makes this social media network member or blogger or interviewer’s audience tune in to his or her show or blog. If it pushes you or your product at the same time, that makes it a win win, that is what we are looking for!

  5. Create a hook. Hook = “Could you go to jail for linking the wrong website?” or “have you checked your FaceBook picture for malware, XYZ co knows why you should” or “Is your health drink, healthy?”

 

 

You hear a lot about taking things “Viral” or making a “Viral” video. Many will come or send spam emails over and over claiming to make “Viral” videos or blogs for you or to have “fool proof” methods for “Viral Content”.  When you see this type of talk, ignore it, no one can “make” viral content, it is something that can be strived for like a hit record or a hit movie, but if there was a guaranteed method for a hit song, The Rolling Stones would still have #1 songs every week.

I was in the Music industry for many years, I was lucky enough to hit on big success many times with 66 gold and Platinum records over the years, but that was with many hundreds of productions. There is no way anyone can ever guarantee a hit and there is no way anyone or anything can ever guarantee viral period!

That said, you can increase your chances of creating a viral video or blog or even a viral social media post by learning to create a good “Hook”.  In the world of advertising it is called a hook, same in the music world, same in the film world.  A hook is something you remember, a tune you hum, a scene you remember from a Superbowl add.  A hook is something you take with you after you read, hear or see it long after the event of reading, seeing or hearing it.

 

5 Ways to Create a Hook for the Social Media Network

First, create interest with the topic:

How social media and content marketing can work together in a network to promote small business

  1. How to do; “How do you Tweet a Question?”

  2. Counter a Myth; “Parents want a quick fix to poor study habits-could drugs be the wrong answer?”

  3. Make a prediction; “Why the US will soon experience dramatic food shortages” –or—“Why food prices will continue to rise”

  4. Ask a Question, “Can you give the media a question they can use?” or “What are cats thinking?”

  5. Give them a timely hook, a reason they need to have information about your product now; Tax advice at tax time, new business start up advice in January, new kind of tomato plant in the spring.

 

Now that you have created interest by making the post a topic that will in itself create interest and make the reader want to read the post, there are further considerations. So many neophytes to Social Media approach posts as if they are writing for themselves or to keep continuity to “their” Social Media.  This is not the case, you are writing for the audience, and each post stands alone, rarely do readers ever look back, so each post is unique and stands alone, think in terms of content marketing and social media always.

 

Create an effective publicity plan around the posts to promote a viral blog which you have just titled with the criteria listed above:

How social media and content marketing can work together in a network to promote small business

  1. Who is your core audience

  2. What does that core audience read or watch

  3. When will your topic be timely; time of year, anniversary, create a holiday around your product, look in the book Chase’s Calendar of Events for listing of 10,000 holidays

  4. Is there a predictable news event that can be spun to your product and sent to the social media network, release of a movie, elections, release of monthly employment figures or farm reports

 

 

Avoid the “I’ll wait till it comes out to publicize the product” approach, look at the political primary elections as an example. Long before the candidates get to an area of a state the more popular ones have been engaged by content marketing and social media.  They have read blogs, seen videos, so when they see Trump or Rubio in a town hall, they are seeing a celebrity, not just a political candidate.

Pre-publicity was a luxury only the wealthiest of companies could afford in the past, now small business can compete on equal ground, with the right plan and help from a good team.

 

Here are some suggestions:

How social media and content marketing can work together in a network to promote small business

  1. When a new or updated product is released, the publicity must already be in place, The Social Media Network; Twitter, FaceBook and LinkedIn announcements kicking for weeks before the product hits the street.

  2. Again do interviews blogs and email blasts, and consistent social media network exposure before the release date as well, to create anticipation of the new or improved product.

  3. Listen to your core interest group, you may find improvements or hooks you never thought of before the product even comes out.

 

Another way you may get some viral juice in today’s changing world of almost free publicity machine is by using a little known trick. You want to get on the good side of the influential bloggers.  Many of these bloggers that have large audiences in the niche you are aiming your blog and products at are blogging for self gratification.  They are not in it for the money, they are industry watch dogs, or industry “experts” or just want to be recognized as “important” to a group of readers.  Your attention to them, asking them to look at your product or position, your attention, could be the touch to get their readers to see you in a positive light!

Get publicity and exposure on blogs that reach your core audience, not just your personal blog. The top 500 bloggers sites have over 100,000 visits per month; this is a resource you need to tap into!

Main ways to get valuable coverage on blogs:

How social media and content marketing can work together in a network to promote small business

  1. Offer to write an article, this is called a “guest Post” free, this will boost small business.

  2. Offer the blogger the opportunity to interview you

  3. Offer the blogger mention or a posting on your blog

  4. Offer the blogger a free product so they can review it

  5. Offer to run a free advice column in their blog

  6. Offer copies of your product as prizes

  7. Give them timely hooks

  8. Always get a plug in return for the appearance

  9. www.technorati.com to find blogs to contact in your field

 

There is also another very inexpensive way to get even more low cost publicity for your small business. In the past Videos, even internal videos showing product training, or simple messages from officers could cost tens of thousands of dollars.  Some well produced video products produced on film for larger companies may have cost in the hundreds of thousands.   But today, with simple quick 30 – 60 second videos produced very inexpensively, you can get your message across visually and compete even in the video arena with the big boys.

You Need a YouTube Strategy, and don’t forget that you can embed YouTube videos within your website, letting YouTube host the videos, but play within your website and not slowing down your website. This can give your website a lift and a much more interactive feeling, with instructional videos, personal messages and fun facts about products and services.

How social media and content marketing can work together in a network to promote small business

You must have a strategy, YouTube should part of any social media networking plan:

 How social media and content marketing can work together in a network to promote small business

  1. What could your core audience be looking for?

  2. How can you set up your video so your core audience can find you?

  3. Video must be no longer than 2 min.

  4. Better to have 40 videos, each 90 second tips, than to have 6 videos, each 15 min speeches.

  1. Hi I am _____________

  2. I am important to you because _______________

  3. Here is what we are doing for you

  4. End with find me here and follow me on twitter

  5. Ask for a response from them through your social media network

    content marketing ideas for small businessContent Marketing Ideas That Attract Targeted Traffic

    By: Thomas R. Reich PhD

    Today, the best and most cost effective form of marketing is Content Marketing and great Content Marketing Ideas. Many times, even the best websites begin to get stale, with content that becomes repetitive, themes and keywords that become over used, so what can be done to keep a content rich website fresh?

    We have developed 6 key content marketing ideas that can be powerful and at the same time freshen up that stale website. Really good Content Marketing Ideas are important to become an information source, an “expert site” and a celebrity of sorts in your industry. These ideas can help freshen up your existing online content library without re-inventing the wheel.

     

    •  Successful Content Marketing Focuses on One Expertise, and Variations of content marketing ideas for small business that Theme:

    The universe of Content Marketing Ideas is vast, it would be impossible to read even 1% of what is available on the internet in a lifetime. That leaves you in a predicament; how do you and your informational portal get found in that vast universe of information?  The answer is simple; you get found in that vast universe of businesses by making your firm’s information portal unique with original content marketing ideas that are consistent and relate to your product or service.

    In business you specialize and find a niche that fulfills a need. Content Marketing Ideas for your website must find a niche, and fulfill information needs.  Once found it is important to fill that niche with every angle and every fact that covers that niche of information.  Become the one best place for information on that niche, your firms area of unique expertise, an area of expertise that leads to your product or service as a solution to unique problems discussed in regards to that information which you have created as a service to humanity.  Starting to get the picture?

    content marketing ideas for small business Some business websites, in their attempt to become the one true source of information on a particular niche, give free video training, white papers even eBooks on that narrow niche. This goes beyond directly promoting the information portal and creates advocates in the internet world sending potential customers to your website to get the free material, prospects you never would have reached otherwise.

    Email marketing can bring potential clients to your information rich website, and instead of being bombarded with “Buy my stuff.” They find the answers they were looking for. When it is time to buy a product or service that is a solution to their problem, who are they more likely to buy from? You, who has provided answers and information, positioning you as an expert in the field, or go back to the internet and search randomly for a solution that would come from a site without any detailed understanding of their problem.

    Another great method to make you the information niche leader is to actually establish an information forum. That is a place where a community can develop around your niche expertise and discuss problems openly with each other. This gives you an opportunity to comment and recommend as a member of the group, rather than as a sales force.  It is possible tocontent marketing ideas for small business develop a large following that will bring many others to your website, with little or no effort on your part.

    What all of these things have in common is consistency, stay on topic in everything you do, everything you represent, all your social media, social sharing and every blog, and rigidly branded to your logo and colors.

    If your narrow niche is Real-estate agents who are frequently driving to properties, you could introduce a series of pod casts that may help grow your community of followers. Also this real-estate website trying to be an information portal, would by definition, have to have a responsive site, a website that converts automatically to maximize viability on any device – be it phone, tablet, laptop or desktop.

    Remember, do one thing well, concentrate on one narrow topic, be consistent, be relevant and be branded in all things. Have an active social media network and social sharing network; shear both new entries and occasionally the popular old entries.  Make sure to update all information as the market and conditions change, even update the oldest pages of information from time to time and re-share.

    Do all this, stay on target and your targeted traffic will grow consistently month to month.

    • Keep all Content Marketing Ideas Consistent with Your Established Party Line on all Issues, But Keep it Coming:

    All Blogs and information content pages need to keep consistent ideas about what you are an expert in. By this we mean, if it is your company’s opinion that Red is the established color for a particular road stripe, then all information presented on that website needs to be consistently in support of Red used as color for that particular road stripe.  If a law changes, or your position on Red changes, make sure all information on your website is changed to reflect that change in law or opinion.  Leaving conflicting information will not only make your website inconsistent and confusing, and instead of being a reliable expert site, it becomes a place to avoid because of inconsistencies.

    As your website becomes full of information and you reach 100s of pages of information, it is a great temptation to feel that’s enough information, and stop adding new information. Adding new information on a consistent basis is not only important to keep visitors returning, it also affects those rankings you have worked so hard to achieve.  A website with no information for even a month becomes stale in the “eyes” of the Google, Yahoo and Bing’s Spiders, and after 2 months of inactivity, the sight is down-graded by search engines no matter how much information it contains.

    content marketing ideas for small business I have dealt with many customers that after we built a great expert site with consistent information and posted consistently over a long period of time that, after differing periods of time, felt, “We can do this ourselves.” Unfortunately, after a month or two they stopped, possibly because it got boring. After several months of inactivity, a very popular website became stale and loses its consistent visitors. Even worse, it gets downgraded by the search sites, and soon the site is dead in the water. It is very important, if you are not a writer and do not enjoy researching and creating the consistent content on your websites chosen expertise, you should hire someone to keep the website fresh.

    Content Marketing Ideas must be fresh and consistent. If they are, you will have success with building and maintaining an information portal or expert site for your product or service. That said, Content Marketing is slow going at first and is hard to define ROI from the growing content. These 2 factors make it hard to stick with a consistent long term Content Marketing Ideas program.  This is human nature, but a consistent program carried out over time will increase your ROL, and a poorly maintained “Expert Website” will hurt your ROI over time.

    The bottom line is to be consistent with the material you add to your Expert Website, and be consistent with postings and promotions of content marketing ideas for small businessnew and old blogs. Read over your older material, if it no longer applies to your companies party line, remove it, if it is just a few lines that are not consistent, change those lines to reflect your most recent position.

    Finally, be prepared to spend time, money and effort to create and maintain a true information portal that, eventually, makes you famous in your market. Consistency will bring you increased and verifiable ROI over time by using fresh content marketing ideas every month or even more frequently.  Once you start building your information content rich website, do not stop, always be reviewing, adding new material, and you will see your expert website grow into something to be truly proud of!

    • With Content Marketing Ideas More is Best

     

    content marketing ideas for small businessIf you have not added to your legitimate Content Marketing Ideas in several months, in other words, some new fresh perspective on the chosen narrow expertise of the website, you must add content, or find someone reliable to do it for you or with you.

    Don’t lose perspective, once your website has become an information portal or expert site, it is tempting to stop adding material. Do not fall into this trap, a website should be looked at as a living breathing thing, adding fresh material at least once a month keeps it fresh in the eyes of the search engines and with your frequent visitors.  Remember Content Marketing Ideas develop over time, your targeted audience grows over time, and as it grows your results will grow exponentially, be patient and consistent.

    Inject new team members and new information sources to keep your content coming and to keep it fresh, and don’t let inspiration fizzle out. More pages are better, the more good information that stays on topic and is branded to you, for example white papers, videos and blogs, that stay on topic, the stronger you grow as an information destination on that targeted need for information.

    As content increases you will see an increase in true legitimate comments and questions. Make sure to answer these questions on the site and respond to the comments, to encourage personal contact with those commenters as a commenter. Remember that whether it is good or bad, they are a prospect, and giving correct answers can get the business. If there is a complaint, make sure to use it as an opportunity to clear up a misconception.content marketing ideas for small business

    Do not copy and paste blogs from similar sites and post on your site, this is not only plagiarism, but will seriously hurt your standings with Google and Bing and Yahoo for posting unauthorized duplicate content. A guest blog from another site can be good if it is on topic and is truly original material, unique to your website and your website only.  Get inspiration and ideas from other blogs, as they say, “there are no original ideas,” but be unique in the way you execute that information.

    There are many ways to increase the volume of output to your website, without compromising consistency or quality. It is a good rule of thumb that Google, Bing and Yahoo will probably not notice your website until your website contains at least 50 pages of tagged consistent information, 100 pages gets some traffic, 200 pages and you start to hum along, and when you reach 500 pages, you will have truly arrived.

    Remember, this volume must be achieved over months, and years, for 500 or more pages sometimes close to a decade. Here are a few ways to speed up the volume of your pages of information.

     

    Post blogs more frequently, if you post once a month, increase that to twice or three times a month.

     

    1. Longer blogs are better, when it comes to getting search engine attention, if you are doing blogs 400 words or less in length, thatcontent marketing ideas for small business should be a press release, they should be 800 to 1000 words as a good minimum to shoot for.
    2. If you don’t use pictures, start including lots of them, make sure they are tagged to your key word and have an explanation that matches your narrow information portal, also URL link them to your home page of the blog itself.
    3. Try imbedding a video that is on topic, and if from YouTube, you have an endless choice to pick from and you are helping the video creator with views on their video while providing your reader with video reinforcement to what you are trying to teach or explain.
    4. Experiment with info graphics, they can take time to create, but they take up a lot of space, and count as more pages. Info graphics also add a lot of interest to a blog which matches the subject of the info graphic. It may even be fun to use other sources of info graphics with permission, and since it is viewed as a picture in most cases, it is not duplicate material.

     

    When you increase output of material on your website, stay on topic and keep it all branded to our standard logo and colors, you will see increased activity. If you are doing things correctly, you will have success. If you provide a unique information service in a consistent manner and on a regular basis, the search engines like Google, Bing and Yahoo will send you more and more traffic.

     

    • content marketing ideas for small businessIt is Absolutely Essential that One Person or Firm be in Charge of the Blog Site – No Unauthorized Entries

Make sure what they see next month is of the same nature.

If you ever get a message saying “when are you posting again?”, or “what happened to enter personal comment?” you have got the beginnings of a growing loyal audience.

    6. Expect and use the terms I and Me in the blog, this gives the firm plausible deniability in the case that an opinion becomes different from a customer’s position.
