Recently featured in Fortune & AllYou Magazines! For FAQs & samples, click more... -------> Here are some FAQs you may find helpful during your search for the perfect contractor. How much does Social Media Marketing really cost? - Thanks to Mack Collier for this extremely detailed analysis. -- http://www.mackcollier.com/cost-of-social-media-in-2012/ What's changed with Facebook recently? - Jump for joy! Facebook has quietly removed the cover photo restrictions!! This includes 20% text rule (although that still stands for ads and sponsored stories unfortunately), calls to action, contact information, URLs and other social media icons. What does this mean for you? This means that adding a Twitter handle, phone number, Website, or "Like Us" verbiage NO LONGER puts your page in jeopardy of being deleted. And if that isn't enough, the restrictions for Facebook contests have become far less rigid! It's perfectly acceptable to use Facebook features such as likes, shares and comments as a means of entry now! When looking for contractors for Social Media marketing, ask questions and review portfolio items to ensure your hiring decision is not a liability. Have you seen your engagement plummet? You're not alone! Your posts are only delivered organically to 1-2% of your total fan base. A strategic ad budget can help! Will you recommend that I be on every Social Media platform and Internet Marketing program known to man? - Absolutely not! Each industry, target market and company is different. For this reason, a plan is the first stepping stone to your Social Media success. I'll research your industry, market and competition to find the greatest saturation of potential leads, devise a strategy to effectively reach them, as well as implement if you so choose. While this step is optional, it is highly recommended. Where can I find your work? - I rarely have time to engage in personal authorship anymore.
