Interesting... this morning I opened office and as soon as i pulled up my browser ... i don't know why but this site automatically pulled up http://dannybrown.me/2010/09/20/social-media-for-your-business/ . The first thing i saw that caught my eye was the keyword Social Media.. So i began reading and it is interesting because this piece kind of follows yesterdays post. The author is Danny Brown. In this piece Brown points out a few topics that seem to be most helpful for me because i am completely new to social Marketing. But I think this really helps me put my thinking cap on.. and will help prepare me for what I am soon to be learning. Brown mentions that among all business's into social media, there are a few areas that business owners need to understand about social media. Here is a quote from brown himself that i read, "Social media is also perfect for reaching out and connecting with your audience, as opposed to just selling them something. Sure, you’re still selling your brand or product – but this time, it’s in an “encouraging to ask questions” approach instead of “this is us and you’ll like it” one." So back to yesterdays post I mentioned three keywords that involve beginning a Social Marketing trade; Knowledge, purpose, and who are the clients we are looking for. I stand behind browns note that Social Media is a good tool to use not only to sell products and services, but to learn about our potential clients. And no other perfect way then to start by asking questions...  What can  Hale multimedia do to bring value to your business. I do believe that we should listen to clients needs and that will help us approach different opportunities to expand. This topic mentioned by brown is perfect and makes me realize that If we do put clients first it will lead us successful into the knowledge we need to have and give us a purpose to what we need to do to be successful. And last but not least it will help us indicate what clients will be best for us to look into.  Just thought this was interesting and wanted to share my thoughts.
