    Making Central Avenue Look Good!

    I love having local clients for many reasons. I love personally getting to know my clients and developing a relationship with them. I love the fact that I not only know their target audience, but I am also their target audience. I love being able to see my client's growth. And I love being available to them when they need me, even for a quick meeting. For me, there is nothing that compares to a local client and I am grateful to each and everyone who gave me a chance to service them and who in turn recommended me to their friends. Central Avenue, my neighborhood's main street, is home to many of my clients. I often pop in to check up...

    How Businesses are Using Social Media

    Posted by: Biserka Anderso Social media has become the de factomarketing tool for companies of all stripes and now we have stats to back this up – 94% of businesses now blog, tweet, pin and post, according to MBA Programs who have visualised the data in this nifty infographic. Social media has started to change the way businesses operate. The more social media accounts a business has, the more customers a business is opening its doors to. Whilst this is a good thing, it can also lead to a lot of questions and feedback. This is why some companies decide to use social media management software and other related tools to keep track of their activities and conversations. ...

    TOP TEN WAYS FOR A BUSINESS TO SUCCEED OR FAIL ON FACEBOOK

    by Michal Weinstein Over the past few years SOCIAL MEDIA (particularly Facebook) has become a big part of the services my company MLWDESIGN offers. It was a natural progression considering how it works hand in hand with web design and requires at times customized graphics. So it's safe to say, between personally being a facebooker and administrating dozens of pages, I have become quite expert in all things FACEBOOK. This morning, approximately 5am, I woke up and started my day as I usually do...

    My Facebook Diet

    Let me start by saying that when I put my mind to something, anything…I go all out. It’s just how I’m wired and who I am. So August 19, 2007 when this new website fell into my radar called facebook, I joined. In those days few of my friends were on and I was still trying to figure out what the idea was all about. Was it another MySpace? I never really got into MySpace. Was it a “social” LinkedIn? A month into my new Facebook membership I deactivated for a bit since I still didn’t get the point of Facebook, but that quickly changed when more and more people caught on. At some point I started feeling “left out” so I...

    Read before jumping into Social Media!

    by Brad Smith Businesses shouldn't rush into social media. Because having no social media presence at all is better than having a bad one. Just because something is popular or trendy doesn't mean you need to do it. It all depends on your unique situation. Here are 3 questions you need to answer before jumping in to social media. 1. How will it support your business? Most people start social media because they hear about it on TV, read about it in the news and hear from others that "it's a great way to market your business". But most don't understand why they're doing it, or what to expect from it. They can't define what success will look like before they begin. That's a big problem. You don't need to...

    How QR Codes Can Grow Your Business

    A great article By Jeff Korhan What are QR codes and how can they help your business? Quick Response codes (QR codes) are expected to achieve widespread use this year – and for good reason. Consumers want immediate access to what's relevant and QR codes are being used to make that possible. QR Codes 101 If you're not yet familiar with QR codes, they're similar to the barcodes used by retailers to track inventory and price products at the point of sale.

Data is a key part to any business, so it's important that business can keep track of this (one way that businesses can help themselves...

    Facebook is Easy if You Master These 2 Tips

    Facebook is quite simple. Work hard to build your audience and then engage them. Since most businesses are not doing this, we thought it best to reiterate the 2 things small businesses need to focus on when marketing online to build a Facebook presence. 1. Build your Facebook page with relevant and targeted people. It’s better to have 200 people that fit your targeted demographic than 1,000 people who don’t. Work hard to get the right people. Your page is not about the number of people, it’s about the quality of people. Quality over quantity. This is usually the biggest mistake businesses make on Facebook. 2. Once you have the right people, you must engage them. There is a reason why virtually...
