You’ve realized that not having a webpage, or an outdated one, is business suicide. Nearly everyone is online accessing the world wide web day and night, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. It never closes, which is part of the appeal. You can shop at 3a.m in your pajamas if you want to. People do just that. That could be your customer with the right marketing. Let’s start with the development and design of your webpage.
It’s important to have good architecture, designs and interactivity, but it’s not what makes people stay on your site. It’s your web content. If they’re not reading what they’re looking for, they’ll click the back button. Studies have shown that the estimated time people spend browsing before leaving is 3 seconds. Your web content needs to grab their attention in that amount of time.
Telesummits are virtual seminars that last several days, usually with 12 or more speakers. Anyone who has planned one can tell you that it’s not an easy task. Not only do you have to plan it, but you have to organize and launch it and then execute it. The level of expertise that goes into these stages can make or break your successes. You should aim to establish yourself as an expert in your field and pulling off a successful telesummit will do that.
What do you think of when you hear the words “social media”? There are so many outlets: Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and Pinterest to name a few. Generally, they are great websites, full of ideas, information and social interaction. You can find things to buy, events to attend and in general, learn more about current events and the world around you.
Social media is also a fantastic marketing opportunity. Small businesses can seem large. Large businesses can improve their branding and customer service. No matter what your business is, social media can help it grow.
You’ve always dreamed of hosting your own conference. A conference is a great opportunity to not only network with your colleagues, but it’s also a good chance to learn and keep up with the goings on in your field. Hosting a conference, however, is a huge undertaking. You have to find a host city, secure a hotel, secure speakers, and figure out how to market the entire thing. This can take up a lot of time that you could be spending on other projects and growing your business.
There was time when having a traditional brick and mortar establishment were all you needed, but today that’s not enough. It can be intimidating when you think about all that goes into building and maintaining a website, but it’s a requirement in today’s business world.
