Learning how to use website design tools and social media

22/8/2012

23 Comments

 
Looking back over the last eight months I can see that I have learnt quite a lot about the use of technology to desig and build websites. I have also learnt quite a lot about the use of some well known social media tools. My learning and development  has been partly planned in the sense that decisions were made and a strategy was developed - like the design of my website and the planning for five twitter exchanges. But it has also been partly reactive to the situations as they arose - like  NB's invitation to get involved in Twitter and seeing an example of an organisational facebook page and thinking that this would be a good thing to do.

This journey has involved:
1)   creating my own website using weebly tools - then applying my learning to develop five other websites for different purposes using the same tools.
2) creating and maintaining a blog on my weebly website
3)  opening a twitter account and participating in four twitter exchanges as well as behaving as an individual 
4)  setting up a 'scrapbook' to enable me to provide supplementary materials for twitter
5) opening a facebook account and with the help of my daughter setting up a lifewide education facebook page and making postings to the pagehttp://www.facebook.com/LifewideEducation 
6) setting up a Lifewide Education Twitter account and linking it to the Facebook pagehttps://twitter.com/#!/ 
6) setting up a lifewide education organisational page and promoting discussions on linked in.

What I have learnt through this process of participation?
I realise I can make effective use of these technologies - I am not scared of making postings and I can see how they work in terms of attracting an audience or following. I'm also beginning to understand how I have to behave in order to attract a social network. These things have been learnt through 1) trial and error - just trying them out 2) being guided by people who were already experienced in using them 3) observing how other users use them and copying them 4) trying to involve other people.

One of the most common misconceptions that small companies have about the internet is that having a website is enough to ensure that online business will soon be booming. Many companies which operate from tiny shops in small towns with very little footfall which are hoping to take on the bigger players in their niche by reaching out to consumers far and wide with a website fall into the trap of assuming the customers will be racing to get to their site. They make the mistake of not asking for the help of a digital marketing agency.

The traditional B2B sales and marketing model is typically depicted in the shape of a funnel; flow starts with marketing and then transitions to sales. Pretty standard, right? Well, the model has shifted with the customer now in control and the psychology of the buyer journey. New B2B sales and marketing strategies are required.

Unless your business is using social media marketing in one or more of its many forms it really is being anti-social. Small businesses that have embraced their own Twitter presence, Facebook pages and stores and have their own customized YouTube channel are beginning to see the many benefits of engaging better with their customers and prospects, as it translates into increased sales. You've decided to hop on board but should you try to look after it yourself in-house or outsource the work? Here are the Top 10 reasons to outsource your social media marketing management to professionals.

No longer does a business have to wonder how to make money from social networking. You don't have to create a game that gets adopted by millions of users or get a show on MTV to increase your sales. Now businesses can get involved with the largest of the social networks and be welcomed by over 400 million people.
