Social media marketing: retain social connections by being consistent and offering value

On social media there are quite some marketers and “entrepreneurs” that rush to provide a solution to problems that exist in the now. They sometimes end up succeeding. Earnings rush in and everything appears to be golden.

Of course, there is a downside. For short-term thinkers and instant entrepreneurs, that downside is the quick fall-off that comes with short-term income. Social media marketing isn’t about short-term quick wins, of course if your business wants to use social media in a professional way. It is about long-term strategies and relationships.

Social media marketing: how many friends does your business have?

When I started this blog back in December, I thought no one would read it because I was not a native English speaker, and I guessed that what I have been writing about for ages in my own country wouldn’t appeal to an international “audience”.

The interaction with people via this blog, the “followers” (I really hate that word) and good old Google Analytics, tell me I was wrong.

When I started the Social Marketing Forum, I was doubting again. Who needed another web site, group blog or Ning community about social media marketing, right?

But I was wrong again. If you have over 600 members in 3 months and over 900 fans on your Facebook page in 2 weeks you must be doing something that appeals I guess.
