Social Media Marketing for Business Owners- Local and World Domination is Possible :)

Please attend to learn more about:

*What social media marketing “is’ and what it means to for small business owners

*How social media marketing can decrease the cost of your current marketing budget by decreasing reliance on print and pay-per-click campaigns.

*Which accounts you should sign up for, and which ones you should avoid.

*See actual screenshots of what it looks like when your business dominates the first page of google naturally! (all a result of social media marketing)

*How much time and skill it takes to set up a good program.

*Learn from the pros- one hour of amazing content that will show you how to get the most attractive lead generation website ever put together for your Home Care, Elder Care, or Senior Service  business (or maybe you need more than one!).

*Learn the secret search engine optimization techniques that will work for any website that you currently own.

*Learn why web masters are TERRIBLE about making changes to your site, take way to long, or never respond at all- and what you can do to change all of that once and for all.

*Learn about the “new” websites that allow you to make some changes on the fly all by yourself, and meet a web designer who is not only a sales professional like you, but is obsessed with great customer service.

Twitter to Launch Lists Feature: A Benefit for St. Louis Small Business Owners

Posted 05 October 2009 | By Val | Categories: Lists, Small Business Marketing St. Louis, St. Louis Small Business Owners, St. Louis Social Media Marketing, St. Louis Social Media Marketing Information, Twitter, new discovery, new feature, small business owner, small business owners, small businesses, tweets | No Comments

Coming Soon! Twitter to Launch Lists Feature

Nick Kallen @nk from the project lead on twitter lists reported that twitter is testing a new feature with a small subset of users.
Their idea is to allow people to curate lists of Twitter accounts. For example, you could create a list of the funniest Twitter accounts of all time, athletes, local businesses, friends etc.

The Lists would be public by default (but can be made private) and the lists you create are linked from your profile. Other Twitter users can then subscribe to your lists. This means lists have the potential to be an important new discovery mechanism for great tweets and accounts.

A Benefit for St. Louis Small Business Owners: Twitter Launches List Feature

The Twitter platform team started working on this feature because of the frequent requests they received from people who were looking for a better way to organize information on Twitter. Of course, that means not just twitter.com—the Platform team will follow up in a few days with information on the Lists API. This will allow developers to add support for Lists into their favorite Twitter apps.

They’re just doing limited testing for now. But once they’ve tested the feature out a bit, they’ll launch it for all accounts!
