Social Media is a top priority it 2010 according to theresearch, published last week in eMarketer! 45.4% of respondents considered social a ‘top priority’ while another 42.2% deemed it ‘important’.

Don't Get Lucky-Get Results! 21 Ways To Get the Most From Twitter

I write about Twitter a lot because next to MySpace it is one of the easiest platforms to use in order to grow your Social Media Network. Facebook, LinkedIn, your Blog are limited to the people you bring to them, so it can be difficult to grow outside your existing network. Twitter is also a great tool to increase traffic to your other Social Media Platforms including your Blog, YouTube, Facebook Fan Page, MySpace or even LinkedIn.  I have clients who report increases of website traffic up to 5000% through Twitter efforts.

Social Media In 2010: Foursquare, Vlogging, Social Media Policies, Twitter Predictions

This time last year, I wasn’t thinking about Social Media as a business tool.  It was completely personal and I didn’t even call it Social Media.  It was a little bit of blogging on MySpace, Facebook (for Social Gaming) and dabbling in Twitter for fun. I had no prediction, thoughts or formatted ideas to offer.   I had only understood it as a way our radio stations could enhance listener experiences with our brands.  I was looking at it as completely personal, not business.  When I think about that statement it occurs to that I have always been a relationship first salesperson also.  I would go to see clients numerous times before wrapping up a deal.  Sometimes receiving criticism for not closing quick enough from bosses but found in the end it always turned to praises at my so called “sales abilities”.  I am so NOT a sales person.  Some of you who know me are laughing right now.  I think of myself as a trust executive designing solutions for companies marketing problems.  In addition I see the sales process as no more than a transfer of enthusiasm.  If I am excited about my product or service it will become contagious to whoever I am in front of.  This is also the approach I bring to Social Media.

Happy New Year from Sissy and I!!!!

Put Social Media To Work for Your Business in 2010!

Well, it is almost New Years Eve and I find myself alone, meaning without a date or a plan.  It's kind of funny cause I don't really do the whole "go out on" New Year's Eve.  I think when I was younger a friend of the family was killed by a drunk driver and I always associate going on on NYE with drunk driving accidents and just because you might have a plan doesn't mean other people do.  This year is looking like I will be spending time with Mom, Sissy, her Uncles(Josh and Balto-my moms dogs), watching Lifetime marathon movies AND hanging online with all my Social Media Friends and Family.  We can have virtual NYE parties this year.  If I was brave I would turn on the video chat.  At some point I know that I will be Vlogging and Videoing.  2010 will be that year.  I just really like working from home and all the non-makeup, non-dressing up, comfortableness that goes with that.

Saturday, Christmas, Sissy and Job Seekers

It was a very long week! I am glad to just sit down at the computer and free-think for awhile.  It is amazing how the meaning of Christmas changes as well get older.  I remember gathering around the tree and being so excited to open presents.  I remember asking for whimsical gifts rather than tires for my car, like this year!

I enjoyed the true meaning of spending Christmas with my family and the religious beliefs I have that go with that! It was wonderful!  I also took Sissy with me to my Dad's parents and she worked the room like a Socialite but for food.  She only weighs 4 and half pounds but I think she is an even 5lbs today! It's hard to say no to those big browns
