Social Networking as Marketing
Shhh! The cat’s out of the bag, but we don’t want to be too loud. Social marketing is just a really nice way of saying “if I provide you some information, entertainment, or both, and show you my wares, you just miight buy something from me if I am not too obnoxious!”
It’s the truth, isn’t it? We have all been hard sold and telemarketed and junk mailed and spammed and pop upped to death! So much so that we are one big bunch of very savvy consumers. But now what do you do if you want to try and sell something to someone who has everything already?
You use the indirect approach, of course! You might ask me “Doug, what is the indirect appraoch?” To that I might say, “well, it’s something that I say, do or otherwise communicate about something that I have that is really, really cool that just tells you just enough about it to make you want it without ever really trying to sell it to you.” Very simple concept and best of all it works!
Take for example a blog I am doing for a dog trainer, The K9 Trainer, which just offers all kinds of helpful dog training tips, for free of course. You take this very clever indirect sales approach and combine it with very organic search engine optimization skills and whala, you will get lots and lots of traffic and talk to many people who eventually end up wanting to do business with you, ergo, Social Networking as Marketing.
This simple but powerful approach is how I can help you make more money than you ever dreamed possible from the internet. If this sounds too good to be true, think again. I have been doing this stuff since 1992 and I know what works and what doesn’t and this really works! Perhaps you would like me to show you some examples and success stories. If so, please feel free to contact me anytime!
Thanks,
