Short answer…

YYYYEEEEEESSSSS!

(it was only one word, so I tried to put a little more into it 🙂 )

Believe it or not, some business owners are still on the fence about whether or not they should have a presence on the various social media networks.

 

Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Google+, etc…
Will they turn your business around?

 So you put up a page on Facebook; you open a Twitter account; you upload a couple videos to your business’ Youtube channel. Are you going to see an increase in business?

Not overnight, no.

 

It’s a Long Term Investment

Some businesses try to monetize their social media presences by posting coupons and other marketing devices, and this can be successful. But not by itself. 

With all of the social networks, it’s about developing community; developing your voice; building relationships with your audience, followers, customers, clients and prospects.

Over a period of time, your followers can get a chance to understand the kind of business you are and how interested you are in helping them with the problems your business can solve.

 

Develop Trust

One of the best things these networks offer is the ability do develop trust; to let your customers get to know more about you; the value you offer and who you are as a business (and business owner).

Trust has always been one of the biggest issues about having a presence online. Is your presence real? Is it genuine? Are you really looking to help your customer or are you just looking to make a buck?

No judgement here, just trying to point out that having genuine presence on these networks can help your customers (and especially prospective customers) determine whether or not they trust you and want to do business with you.

 

Why Bother? 
Because your competition is taking advantage of these online opportunities.

If you haven’t started, START TODAY!

Trust me, you’ll be there eventually. The longer you wait, the more catch up you’ll have to play later.
