  4. Deep Diving Into Social Media – Beyond Basics JUST A SLIGHT OVERVIEW: • WEBSITE- Here is where you want all your communications, all connections to end up. This is your goal in communicating, getting your prospect to YOUR home online and into YOUR office • LinkedIn – LinkedIn is a professional networking site… your professional profile with the ability to have a corporate page. • Facebook – Most businesses should be using Facebook. It has the largest user base and some of the best targeting tools … BUT it is harder to target from a company page. • Twitter is very popular but works better on a larger audience scale. • You Tube… going viral on YouTube means putting your face and voice out there! Probably on it’s way • Google+ – Google+ has very few active users in comparison to other social media platforms. But SEO counts a lot here.

  6. Deep Diving Into Your Social Media… Beyond Basics • *ComplianceMax… Regulators are the God… of compliance. • All static social media must be submitted to your Broker/Dealer. • Once it is Approved by them and compliance, it can be put on each platform– LinkedIN, Facebook, Twitter and Youtube. • All status updates, posts and tweets- which are considered non-static, be archived. • Ask us for a list of LPL guidelines to ComplianceMax.

Deep Diving Into Your Social Media… Beyond Basics Marketing in a digital world means having the technologies, platforms and operations in place to enable instant communications • The cycle that YOU need to start. • Start out with “content “. • Share this little bit of data and the feedback – it’s the two-way dialogue that you need to foster engagement and keep it going . • Start to grow that community. • Your marketing cycle is being pushed by the viewers… your audience.

  10. Deep Diving Into Your Social Media… Beyond Basics Operations & Designating Tasks • For you to be able and ready to act and react in real -time You first have to “listen” to what is being said. • And not about things that are just “trending”. HOW DO I DO THAT ? Embracing real -time means changing how your marketing team operates. • “Socialize” your staff,now it’s time for your staff to get social. • Decide who you want to designate to be your “voice”. • Yes… I am the voice of many. If you don’t know my story yet.. or haven’t been to my website you should read it… Who is YOUR voice? MarkeTech Interactive We Do It For You! www.marketechinteractive.com 888 887-2611 Slide 10

  11. Deep Diving Into Your Social Media… Beyond Basics Integrating Social Media Into Your Traditional Marketing • Creating the content on your website and for social media updates • Credibility You need to Give answers and keep your ideal clients informed! • Connect : Integrating your message on all the platforms with your “voice. HOW DO I DO THAT? When you have all your collateral material, your whole marketing strategy together: • You are going to take all that information and make it digital, • You are going to POST this material on your website-. • Your blog. the post is going to tell the story. • And all of your posting will be directing your viewers to your site. • You post a twitter with 140 characters directing to your site. • You post a LinkedIn status up-date with a link to your site. • And tell your friends about it on Facebook… YES, with a link to your site. • Remember all your collateral material should have your digital marketing information clearly stated on. Slide 11

  12. Deep Diving Into Your Social Media… Beyond Basics • Platforms: to identify the platforms you want to use, you need to identify your goals. • Traditional Marketing: So what has been working up till now? • Let's identify the goal.... Your business objectives, Yes… we know it’s to gather more assets under management. • What social media platforms are you using now? Or are you going to use? • This takes time – • What you are going to say? How are you going to say it? • Let's now identify who your audience is? And what platform they are on. • Is twitter where they hang out… short bursts of a message. • Facebook– primarily women… good for a women’s niches. • LinkedIn where the profiles tell you who they are in business! • YouTube- if you are willing to go viral and do video… this is the way to go. • If you have a “niche” market inside your target audience this takes a bit more culling… and research!
