Do you think #SocialMedia is important for your #business?

We think so.

Social media is a crucial component of marketing strategies for small businesses. Nick Stamoulis hit the nail on the head in his article about why social media is great for inbound marketing.

One of the best points Nick makes about social media is that it is a great tool to target people who are already looking for the services your business offers. This is much more effective than interupting masses of people as they go about their day to day lives, as the old school of marketing thought would dictate.

In addition to using social media to target a captivated audience, there are many other great benefits of having a social media presence.

Social media can:

  • Be used to funnel leads to your website
  • Let customers have a direct line to the heart of your business
  • Establish you as an industry expert by allowing you to share your knowledge
  • Create a means to connect with your customers on a personal level

These are just a few of the benefits of having a social media presence online, however, this is just the tip of the iceberg.

It's been an unseasonably warm Winter so far in Canada, and we haven't seen much of the snow, ice, and bone-chilling temperatures that we're accustomed to seeing at this time of year. 

While this is positive (EG: less snow shoveling) and negative (EG: less snowboarding) for many different people, we'd love to know how this warm weather is affecting you.

How is this warm winter affecting you?
