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. It's also helpful to use influencers over models when taking photos of your product or service. They can help promote while also serving as the focus of your content.
Plus, how has mobile marketing changed? Slefo says over 50% of the ad dollars spent in 2017 were for mobile marketing. He believes brands need to do their homework before just slapping ads everywhere, but he suggests investing some time and money into Facebook.
