what would YOU like to Learn about Social Media ?
« on: December 03, 2012, 03:35:30 pm »
Following on from my other post:

What would you guys being window cleaners/business owners like to Learn about Social Media to help move you forward with it in 2013:

"I really dont want this to turn into I hate social media, it doesnt work type post".

So for the ones that are interested in this topic


What would you like to Learn about it?


I know now from the poll and comments that many do not understand it still and I would like to help you understand it better

I was a little shocked by the poll which is here>> http://www.cleanitup.co.uk/smf/index.php?topic=161898.0
You can by the way still add to it before i lock the voting down.


The three social media's I am going to be covering are facebook, twitter and youtube as these are the most common.

So pop in your questions on what you would like to know or whats holding you back and I will try to answer them within the article for you if it gets to big I will put it into a guide free of charge for all the basic things to get you up and running.
 

Many thanks

Ian

hey ian!

that's really kind of you to offer this help.

i;m interested in what order of importance you would put these for your business, and what they are useful for specifically.

thanks

I'd like to know if an affiliate program run through a facebook business page can be used as an effective marketing tool for a window cleaner,...

I'd like to know why Ian's faffing about with this poll. Just get on and write the darned piece man.

There's plenty out there already.

Hi Ian, I replied to your original post. I'm not a fan of facebook, for window cleaner marketing (at this time) however, if you have some valid points to make that would help my business, I am very willing to listen and learn. Look forward to what you have to say.

Do you recommend a stand alone fb account or a window cleaning 'page' linked to your personal account?

Is it worth paying for fb ads?  Or better to target local groups yourself for free?

Do people realise that they have a kind of hidden message box called 'other' where messages from people not on their friend list get sent? 

Almost missed a few new referrals until someone showed me this.

Do people realise that they can send proper documents via a personal message?

Quick and efficient.

Why don't you have a quick google before making stupid comments?
