Marketing seems like a natural step shortly after starting your own company, but how can you leverage social media and digital video to make yourself buzzworthy? Mallory Blair, Co-Founder & CEO of Small Girls PR and George Slefo, Reporter at AdAge join This Changes Things to discuss how to market your business effectively using social media.
The first thing Blair says you need to do is to find your voice and your audience. Create a customer demographic and then target those people.
