Social Media Marketing To Help You Get Found Online!

What is Social Media Marketing?

Simple Marketing Now takes advantage of the lessons that social media marketing and social media tools – like blogs, online reviews, sharing and networking – teach us about connecting with customers.  Rather than interrupt your customer, as traditional tools like advertisements do, social media tools engage them in conversation. If you are serious about the conversations, you can remedy the failures of traditional or outbound marketing, which is inherently one-way, and establish two-way communications, trust, transparency and authenticity in a group setting. That’s what makes it social.

Now, social media marketing tools aren’t just the latest shiny toys out there. It's not really the tools themselves that are interesting. It's what they do that's important.  These tools enable interaction amongst people. They break down the traditional walls that companies have built between themselves and customers, and which are part and parcel of traditional marketing techniques. They allow us to get to the heart of what matters to your customer, and offer value to them through content and conversation.
