Okay. So it was just 2 rooms, but they were filled
for Corey's seminar called Social Media Marketing for Business:
Build Your Digital Footprint. Onsharp's Tami Dowers and Tommy
Butcher attended the seminar on Tuesday morning at the Fargodome.
Social Media Marketing is an area where many people have questions
and Corey was great to answer a lot of them.
Onsharp and SmartPay participate in social media in a variety of
ways. Our social media strategies include these tips:
- Be Genuine
Like Corey said, "If you're funny, be funny. If you're not, you
don't have to be. "
- Engage, engage, and engage people!
Social media should be a two-way conversation not just you
"telling people what you had for breakfast."
- Constantly evaluate, re-evaluate, and pay attention to
your efforts.
Choose a goal and have metrics to track your progress, like
increasing traffic to your website.
We enjoyed the seminar so much we bought the combo pack and even
"Liked" the fan page! Corey has great tips for social media and
other internet marketing techniques in his book eBoot Camp that you
can buy on Amazon!
Onsharp is willing to host an open forum regarding social media
where you can ask experts about your social media. Would you
