Meet Deluxe

Today, I’m going to share some tips

on how to harness the power of

social media

A few ground rules

Today, we’ll be discussing ways of identifying

the right people to connect with on social

networks

People who will be able to help you grow your

business, not just friends and followers who

make your numbers look good

Feel free to be dazzled and amazed

Disclaimer: We won’t be discussing the

following: – How frequently to communicate

– What to say in your messages

– What to do in the case of a negative noise

Let’s make this a discussion

LET’S GET DOWN TO BUSINESS

The basics – we’ve got to be present!

If we build it, will they really just come?

This one’s a go!

Connect with active members on brand pages

Use Facebook Graph Search to dig deeper

Oh my goodness, look at all of this data!

LET’S NOT FORGET ABOUT GOOGLE PLUS

Lots of great interactive conversations going on

In the past 3 weeks, I‘ve had

200+ interactions with my

friends on Google +. How many

have you had on Facebook?

Don’t listen to the haters, Google Plus is the real deal!

Eh, Google Plus is

worthless, why bother?

Let me test this thing out and see what

it can do.
