- Hello to each of you. I am excited to have been asked to share with your marketing team today. My name is Alisha and I am the Executive Account Manager for Marketing411. As you know Northwest and Marketing411 have formed a solid partnership toward helping your company gain strong brand awareness. Today I have been asked to share with you how implementing different avenues of social media can generate new sales and develop higher customer retention rates. As the leading high-tech manufacturer of security cameras and surveillance tools for business and industry you know how important security is to every business. I will share with you today how social media can help Northwest Technologies secure their own future as a company who remains highly visible and relevant.
- In order to understand how B2B companies using social media are ensuring that they have any place in the future of business we need to take a quick step back and discuss the growth of Social Media and its emergence in the Corporate World. I will walk you through a brief history of what social Media has become. When and where is it being used today in the corporate world and how partnered with Marketing411, Northwestern Technologies can position its self to take advantage of these virtual conversations that can lead to consumer awareness, new loyal customers and stronger brand preference.
- Using basic modem systemsSM started back in the 1970’s as a place for people to share ideas via a Bulletin Board System (BBS) (History).People loved being able to share with like minded groups so as tech grew, so did more effective and entertaining ways for people to strengthen relationships regardless of distance. Compliments Pew Internet & American Life Project, the graph on the screen allows you to see how as tech became more readily available the growth of people using it socially exploded until now 79 – 84% of those 15 and older take part in Social Media (Borges).As you know, TV commercials no longer have their effect because they have lost their audience. This is where their audience has shifted.And this is why Corporate America is now shifting its ad $ to Internet Advertising. Social Media is capturing the largest audience online. Businesses who don’t choose to shift with those potential customers will be left in the dust. Social Media is all about communication. It allows you a place to get your message out to potential clients through genuine conversations. It allows your clients to communicate with you in a manner that allows response quickly and effectively building further brand loyalty. It allows your customers to talk for you to potential clients, giving their genuine feedback about why your brand is better.The first decade of the new century saw business begin to take advantage of this shift in a new way to communicate. Yelp allowed for businesses to post locations and receive reviews for others to make buying decisions from (Kitt).Twitter was used to help smooth over disgruntled customers in Feb of 2007 and becomes a way the receive customer feedback and assist with customer service (Kitt).
- As business got on the band wagon we saw those same social media applications that were created primarily for social reasons start to broaden their application to new ways specifically for businesses to help build their brand recognition and share what they loved about that brand with their online networks.2009-’10Social networks like Facebook and Twitter follow in the footsteps of Foursquare allowing “check-ins” for businesses helping with branding and marketing of those companies by letting the consumers “shout out” to their virtual friends where they were and what they were loving about it (Kitt).2011 is officially announced as the year social media becomes social business by Social Media guru Bernie Borges (Borges). The graph points out why. Over 70% of companies are taking advantage of Facebook’s business application of their accounts while about 50% are using the power of blogging to connect with their current and potential customers (Bullas).
- Competitors like ADT are using all facets of Social Media to gain new customers and improve their customer service.Here is a screen shot of their channel on YouTube. Notice on the right hand side the icons they have included for others to find them through multiple social media outlets. Social Media isn’t about a “hard sale”. It’s about creating a space that can foster genuine conversations with potential or current clients. A quick look at ADT’s Facebook page shows that they have been able to handle customer concerns in real time and offer solutions so as to keep a customer a happy customer. It enables customers to feels like ADT cares enough to listen and respond. The quickness with which issues are handled right in front of the publics eyes allows potential clients to build trust and be more likely to purchase as well.ADT also uses blogging. Though, you will notice if you visit their blog the objective is not to talk about purchasing ADT products. Instead, blogging is about giving valuable content to the reader to keep bringing them back. Each visit exposes them “silently” if you will again and again to the ADT brand while giving them helpful and relevant information they can pass on to their network of friends, allowing even more exposure to the ADT brand.
