Social Media and Business Networking

Web 2.0 Social Networking

Social networking is the method in which you join a social networking website, like myspace.com. Here, “friends” find you and link on, then refer you to their “friends” and word about you spreads.

MySpace may or may not be the best social networking site to join, but there are 100’s out there. However, there are many companies who use these non-traditional social sites (non-traditional meaning, that they typically do not serve B2B companies as a means to generate exposure about their areas of expertise.

A famous example is the “Blend-it” company who started a series of You-Tube.com videos that have become nothing short of a cult following. They all start with a fellow in a lab suit asking the question; “Will it blend?” Subsequently throwing random things into his blender from pigs feet to ipod’s.

The point was to show how their blender could virtually blend anything.

The numbers for the amount of views for this company’s video is astounding.

MySpace Demographics

62% are 25+
40% are 35+
83% make $30,000+
19% make $100,000+

Facebook.com Demographics
46% are over 25
34% are 35+
88% make $30,000+
23% make $100,000 +

Facebook is ADDING a million 25+ (non-student) adults /week. That's 52 million new users a year.
YouTube.com gets over 50 million unique visitors per month. That equals over half a billion a year.
Facebook and MySpace have the equal daily traffic of Google. Experts predict within the next year they will DOUBLE the daily traffic of Google search.

Prospects, traffic and spending power is there. NOW is the time to establish your presence.
Web 2.0 Strategy:

The buying public will quickly shun marketers. Internet readers want information not advertising, marketing, or a "pitch".

Become a trusted authority, like a friend, on the social media websites.

Begin Blogging
Create a video on how to solve a problem with links back to your website
Share your Passion
Controversy Sells
Create World Class Content
Offer highly educational information
If your audience feels you're pitching them you lost them
Engage in the Conversation
Web 2.0 is a dialogue not a monologue
Observe and listen before you broadcast
Encourage questions
The answers become user-generated content

Marketing in a Web 2.0 Social Media Environment Is Exciting because you're the star and you're building your fan base so entertain, inform, and deliver consistently.

You have more publishing power at your fingertips right now than at any time in history.

Use it to share your passions, reveal your trials and tribulations, tell your story and, watch how quickly your audience grows.
