A a small or medium sized business you may already have been approached by an internet marketing company or internet marketing consultant offering to help you with your online business marketing or to run your social media marketing.You may also be asking yourself exactly what social media marketing even is and what new internet marketing terms such as “Social Media”, “Social Media Marketing”, “Social Media tools”, “Social Networking” or “Web 2.0” mean. Don 't worry - you're not alone.
The evolution of new interactive social media sites such as Facebook and Twitter have led to a radical re-evaluation in the way that businesses seek to market themselves online. New tools such as blogs, short form messaging, feeds and social media sites have rapidly changed the way that information is shared across the internet.
These days, effective internet marketing is so much more than tweaking your meta-tags or simply posting an advertisement and waiting for a prospective customer to come to you with a requirement. The nature of internet business marketing is now much more of an interaction; a two way 'conversation' in which you engage your audience, elicit a dialogue and share information relating their needs and interests. Social media builds relationships that build loyalty and represents new and powerful opportunities to build brand awareness and visibility, to cross-sell, innovate and gain competitive advantage.
In short, Social Media Marketing (SMM) offers tremendously effective internet marketing opportunities. The time is fast approaching when according to Hunter Madsen of Yahoo, 'if you're absent from the social media and social networking scene, you are literally declaring yourself irrelevant.'
