How I chose to market TweetMentor – and whether it worked

tweetmentorI love the idea of using ‘different’ marketing techniques rather than the usual same old same old. You know: “Make the price end in a 7″, “Offer loads of freebies that are actualy worth nothing”, “Pretend there are only a few places for signups”. I’m not stupid (I hope!) and neither are you, so we all know that offers such as that aren’t really offers at all. And every time I see a price ending in 7, it makes me cringe (sorry!) :)

Marketing Donut that is. It seems like a lifetime ago that I had the telephone conversation with Kate about Twitter that resulted in this article (Can Twitter Help Your Business?), but it’s nice to see it generating comments.

As anyone who knows me is aware, I’m a MASSIVE fan of using Twitter for Business, and it’s good to see people thinking and talking about it, whether they agree with me or not :)

Everywhere you turn, everything you read, and almost everyone you speak to these days has picked up on it. The new buzzphrase for 2009 seems to be ‘Social Media Marketing’. It’s almost as if it came from nowhere – ‘experts’ are springing up, and every man and his dog is being told that they need to take part, or pay someone to do it for them.

3 Social media nightmares, and what they have taught us

“Social media marketing” is the new buzzphrase in town, and everyone and their dog is ‘at it’.

Someone asked me the other day how I became a Social Media Marketing Expert, and when I’d stopped laughing, I told them that I didn’t class myself as an expert as such; all I do is take common sense marketing techniques and transfer them to the Social Media arena. Social Media Marketing as we know it is so new that there really aren’t as many experts out there as you would think.
