Social Media Marketing in the Real World
There are plenty of social media gurus out there, who know everything about even the most obscure platforms, and make no mistake, there is a bewildering number of social media platforms.
However, if you want practical advice about using social media for marketing, then you might prefer to talk to people who also have marketing knowledge and skills.
Newtricks for business was founded by a group of people with vast experience in running businesses, marketing, managing, delivering the goods.
We have come to social media from a practical, business-orientated point of view. We'd like to share our knowledge with you.

How We Can Help
If you're busy running a business, the last thing you need is yet more work. But a social media campaign can be very labour intensive. You won't get any benefit from creating a Facebook page unless you feed it regularly with updates, cultivate 'likes' and thus readers, and make it an interesting place to visit. A Twitter account is no use unless you tweet useful information that people want to follow. If you add Linkedin, Google+, Pinterest and other platforms into the mix you could easily spend far more time than you've actually got on social media.
There are various ways around this. You can limit the number of platforms you use. Obviously you need to research which are most useful and how much time input might be required for each of them. You might outsource some or all of your social media marketing to a suitable marketing agency. Furthermore, you'll need to keep an eye on what they're doing, and agree the strategies and targets to begin with. You can use tools to make your input more efficient. There are various applications to automate your tweets, to combine your various platforms by duplicating messages to some or all of them. Used with care these can work well.
Newtricks can help you achieve you goals. We hold frequent seminars on different aspects of social media. We offer tailored consultancy to get you moving on the right track. We can set you up with a suitable selection of platforms and a 'game plan'. You can outsource work to us.
Drop us a line to discuss your social media marketing strategy further. There's no commitment. We won't blind you with jargon. We'd like to help you succeed.
