Social Media is not a fad. It’s a
 fundamental shift in the way we
 communicate.

• 43% of small businesses
    spend 6+ hours per week in
    social media.

                                          -Hubspot

• 86% of small businesses
    said they used Facebook
    professionally every day.

How are small businesses
 using social media?



Angela Connor   Twitter: @communitygirl   #capstratsocial
 Promote products. B2B marketers use social sites to
    promote new offerings and spotlight current products.
   Engage with influencers and brand
    advocates. By engaging with influencers, fans and
    advocates, B2B companies are building their online
    reputations and encouraging sales.
   Showcase content. Content marketing is a top tactic
    used by US B2B marketers, and many are adapting it to the
    social media marketplace.
   Capture and amplify word-of-mouth. Social
    media allows marketers to capture buzz and word-of-
    mouth, and then amplify it, which has proven successful for
    B2C brands.

Guiding Principles

•    Focus on the members. It is a must that you have content that draws
     people in and keeps them coming back. User-experience is a key
     component.

     always be new to someone. Showcase user-generated content. The well is
     never dry when you find ways to breathe new life into archives and take a
     different approach.

•    Make it easy for everyone. Membership is the goal but lurkers matter. It
     could take months for a participant to actually join a community. Provide
     some content that doesn‟t require membership and encourages conversion.

Purposefully Repurpose Content


•    Shorten blog posts for newsletters

•    Create tweets based on press releases

•    Turn internal training documents into blog posts for the intranet

•    Reuse infographic content

•    Rewrite or refresh older content or write a “Best-of list”

•    Turn an interview into a pithy „Q and A‟

•    Extract content from blog posts for Facebook and Twitter.

•    Use sales collateral and web copy

•    Transcribe podcasts and videos – Use content elsewhere

Parting Thoughts




  •   Social networks influence B2B decision-makers
      as they research purchases

  •   Branding and awareness-building are important social media
      objectives for B2Bs.

  •   B2B Social Media is a growing focus for marketers.

  • B2B marketers rely on a mix of social media sites for
    digital marketing

  •   Social efforts must be unified internally.
