“It’s easier than ever to reach a large audience,

but harder than ever to really connect with it”

It is vital in this day and digital age that you make the effort to truly connect with your site visitors/blog readers and community.

A tool which makes your site much more interactive and invites connection is the Wibiya toolbar. We have been using the toolbar for some time, (have a look at the orange bar at the bottom of your screen). We definitely recommend you have a look at Wibiya. You can also follow @Wibiya on Twitter.

WIbiya has just come out of beta testing and is now available to all for free! There has recently been some fantastic upgrades and new apps added which are very powerful.

“Marketing is a Tax You Pay for being Unremarkable”

This statement was made by Robert Stephens, Founder of Geek Squad at the Customer Service is the New Marketing Summit in 2008. What is your opinion? True or False?

The very statement itself,  so controversial at it’s core is a basic marketing strategy.

I have personally connected with many of the top people in social media and count them more like friends than contacts. I’ve connected with people from many different industries, learnt so much about business, visited all sorts of fab websites I would never have known about otherwise and so much more – all in 140 characters or less! I loved it, Twitter was my number 1 social media site.

This was until recently, when I did things a bit differently – I have since realised that certain techniques were not serving me well… I was not connecting with tweeps in the same way I used to and finding I was drifting over to Facebook much more than before.

So, here I honestly tell you my 3 big fat Twitter mistakes, the impact they had and how i plan to fix them. [Read more →]
