Social Media Marketing: The Benefits To Internet Marketers
Social Media Marketing is a powerful tool for business online. Whether you’re brand new to the Internet marketing game, or you’re looking to learn more about how to leverage social media to enhance your business, this post is for you.
Social media marketing carries many benefits to Internet marketers, including:
ESTABLISHING A BRAND AND RAISING AWARENESS
The majority of people on the Internet today are using at least one social media network, such as Facebook, Twitter, Google+ or linkedin etc. A good many of them are using two, or even all four of those social networks.
Getting your brand out there on those platforms is a good way to let people know you’re around.
SPYING ON THE COMPETITION
Follow your competition to see what kind of deals they are offering customers. Keep up to date with other things they have going on. Just be sure that whatever you have to offer is better or different.
CONDUCTING MARKET RESEARCH
Social media can help you listen to what your customers have to say about your products or services. By tracking what they click on and what they avoid, you can see what people like and are responding to.
ENHANCED CUSTOMER LOYALTY AND TRUST
Social media allows you to speak to your customers on a more personal level, which makes them feel more important to you and more valued.
In turn, customers are more likely to trust you, which means they are more likely to do business with you.
INTERACTING WITH YOUR AUDIENCE
People visit social media websites for the interaction with their peers, not to be bombarded with ads.
You can use the platform to ask customers to share their thoughts and opinions, which makes them feel like you’re listening. Building up relationships is key to your success.
BRINGING ATTENTION TO YOUR PRODUCT OR SERVICE
Social media moves at lightening speed. If you want to promote your product, doing so on social media is one of the quickest ways to get attention to it.
ESTABLISHING YOURSELF AS AN EXPERT
If you’re passionate about a certain topic, the Internet can help you establish yourself as an expert by giving you a platform to share information.
People will be coming to you for information on the topic, and telling their friends about you.
BUILDING YOUR PERSONAL REPUTATION
Social media allows you to get your name out there, and talk about the various things that matter to you. This is key to building a good online reputation, which is critical if you intend to make new business connections.
BUILDING AND ENHANCING PERSONAL AND PROFESSIONAL RELATIONSHIPS
Social media allows you to build and enhance both personal and professional relationships. You can use it to connect with other industry experts, or find old friends from high school you’re looking to reconnect with.
SHARING INFORMATION WITH LIKE-MINDED PEOPLE
Distance is no longer a barrier. You can connect with professionals in your field that are in the same city, or across the globe, as if they were next door neighbors.

P.S… Success in this profession comes down to one thing: It’s all about talking to the right people. Whether you are recruiting reps or customers, if you are not reaching out to the right audience (or constantly fishing in the same pond over and over as most do), you’ll never move forward in your business.

Amazing info you have here, Lynda! Thank you for sharing. I like “establishing yourself as an expert” the most. When you’re an expert, people come to you, naturally.
Thank you Alecia. I agree, establishing yourself as an expert is a good one and not that hard to do. Its certainly worth learning how. Thanks for commenting. I appreciate it.
Great points Lynda, social media is so important for businesses of all sizes. I use social media personally, for my blog and for my business. With it, I’m not sure I would have the same success.
