How to Manage ALL your Social Network accounts

How to Manage ALL your Social Network accounts

I felt the need to blog about the many social networking accounts that are out there and how to manage all of them. Are you like me, trying to stay current but feel there are just way too many social networking accounts out there that you cannot keep up! OMG! Who has time like that to be on all these social networks and still be able to post relevant posts that are engaging and still serve the main purpose: Drawing in traffic to your website or business to increase sales ultimately!

Sheesh! I mean really… we have:

• Google+
• Facebook
• Twitter
• Instagram
• Snapchat
• Linkedin
• Pinterest
• Tumblr

And just so many more! OMG! Talk about overwhelming. And if you did your research, in order to be effective on these social networking accounts you have to post relevant content that your audience actually is interested in and then tie that into your business’ products or services. Seems almost impossible - unless you are literally online on social networking accounts all day every day… I mean seriously.. Who has that kind of time on their hands?! You own a business! You don’t have that kind of time.

Well I wanted to give you a solution to this madness and help you to be able to manage all your social networking accounts without feeling like you eat, sleep, and breathe social media on a daily basis! :)

The solution:

There are many platforms out there now that help you to link all your social media accounts on one platform and then share the same post on all of them at one time. HootSuite is one platform. You can schedule posts, use hashtags, and even view all of your social networking accounts at once on the platform.

Want to make it even easier?!

Well, what I find simple is how some of the most used social networking accounts like Facebook, Twitter and Instagram - allows you to link your accounts. That way when you post something you have the option of posting it on your other accounts too. I actually use this feature currently.

Tip to manage it even further!

Schedule social media time if you are just way too busy to be posting throughout the day. Set up a time or day that you will do your posts. Use Hootsuite to schedule days/times that it will launch on. Now you will be managing your posts like a boss!

4 Reasons you Need to Get a Website Right Now

4 Reasons you Need to Get a Website Right Now

#1 - A New Chain of Sales:

If your business is not online by now, you are missing out on potential revenue. Back in the day, the chain of sales used to go something like:

Customer has a need for a product or service > Customer goes to Yellow pages > Customer visits store to request more information, flyer, sales paper, catalog, or a brochure > Customer takes home the information to review and decide if they want to make the purchase.

Now the chain of sales is much faster with the internet! It now goes something like this:

Customer has a need for a product or service > Customer searches the internet for the business’ website > Customer reviews the products or services to make a decision to stop by to make the purchase.

#2 - Competition Stealing your Customers:

Well, as you can see it is very important for every business to have a website. If a customer doesn’t find a website for the business, they often find another business that does have a website and become sold on their products and services before yours. No business would want that to happen to them!

Having a website establishes credibility of businesses. It also shows that your business is up with the times and innovative.

#3 - Free Marketing 24/7:

Another benefit of having a website is the “Free Marketing” you get 24/7. Draw traffic to your website with search engine optimization, keywords, and social media and you will be able to market your business for free 24/7. So when you are sleeping your website is working hard to advertise your business to customers searching for the product or service you offer! So you can kind of look at it like you are saving money long term on other marketing efforts.

#4 - A New way to do Word of Mouth:

With social media in play, a simple “Share” button can be exactly what you need to make “Word of Mouth” easier to share your business or refer your business! If a customer is satisfied with your products or services, they can simply share your website address on their social media accounts like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and more. Now all there friends and family will know your business too! Easy marketing… Easy referrals!

So as you can see it is very important to have a website. We have some really great deals at dttgraphics.com to get you up and running online. Prices starting at just $199 for design.

Tips for Getting Started with your Blog

Hi everyone,

So I have been searching online for some time now... Every time I turn around I see that one vital way to market your business online is by blogging. I said to myself, "Self (pause)... I don't know if I have the time". Lol :) But the truth is, we all have the time.

So to kick off this blog ... I want to provide some quick tips on how to manage your time so that you can blog as well. 

Are you ready?! 

I hope so.

Tip#1 - Manage your time wisely. 

You will need to schedule in some time for blogging. Not only that but you also need to schedule time for other day to day activities for your business marketing efforts. For example:  schedule your time for social media posting. There are apps for that. One app is Hootsuite. Try it.

Other things you can use your time for is maybe your YouTube videos, direct mailings, customer mailing lists (emails or postal).

Also you can even set aside a time to check all messages like emails, texts, voicemail, and social media.

Tip#2 - Draft your content when you have free time. 

For example, you are stuck in line at the dmv or maybe you are finding yourself spending way too much time on social media... Or maybe you are up all night for no reason... You can draft your blog content at that time. :)

Tip#3 - Use your mobile phone. 

Are you like me .. When you hear the term "blogger" you imagine some sophisticated individual sitting at a desk with a cup of fresh hot coffee getting ready to stick a pencil in their ear and crack their knuckles... And blog...?! :)

Well guess what, you can simply blog on the sofa from your mobile phone or device. Easy!

Don't make it too complicated!  I guess that can be tip #4 :) 

Keep it simple and blog useful content. Make your blog posts real and natural. No need to go too deep. Post what you know naturally.

Happy blogging people.

I hope I can continue to bring you more informative blog entries.
