What are the mistakes professionals or entrepreneurs make during the presentation?
5 Mistakes professionals make during the presentation
1.
Avoid showing your back to the audience. Always keep your laptop in FRONT of you. That way you can see what is projected to the audience. You do not need to turn your face to the screen. How can you maintain eye contact during the presentation if you have to take a turn for every slide?
2.
Do not give your laptop another person to click. Click yourself. Keep the computer near you. Better use a USB wireless mouse. Saying next, next for every slide is not a good idea. That you will have full control and you can advance slide forward when you finish your point. During Question, you may like to go to a previous specific slide to explain your answer. Even the organizer needs to take care to provide a laptop on the podium in front. Unfortunately, people who make arrangements are not professional and have no idea of such a simple requirement. You need to tell them in advance.
Tell about making the slide? I mean, What mistakes are made while making the PPT?
3.
A serious mistake made while making your PPT is to use smaller font size, and no images. Always use a bigger font size depending on the size of the audience. I usually use 36 or 40 points in size. Using bullet points with few words is a good idea. Bullet points are not only for the audience it is for the speaker to prompt for the next point. Do not fill the slide with all texts. Explain your point verbally. Use related images, use animation effect sparingly.
4.
Most speakers feel shy to tell the audience to follow him or her on social media. Always add a slide showing your social media links; just before the last slide, Thank You slide (or Question? slide). For example, Follow me https://twitter.com/JyotiSocial OR Like my Facebook Page https://www.facebook.com/JyotindraZaveri You can just put the respective social media logo followed by the link.
5.
Speaker does not Check-in. Advertise your presence by telling the audience to take a photo with you and do Facebook Check-IN. And post on his her timeline. That way his or her friends will know about your event.
Your feedback in Comment will be appreciated. OR WhatsApp 9552946949.

What is the difference between Company Page and Local Business Page?
If you have a local business. I strongly recommend creating a Facebook Page. There are several kinds of Page. Select Facebook Page for local business. When creating a Facebook Business page, the very first step is to choose what type of page you would like.
Real Estate
Retail
Hospital
Hospitality
Company, Organization or InstitutionIf you are an online store, have more than one location or foot traffic is not of major importance for your business, this is the option for you.
Features: 1. Contact information 2. Mission 3. Awards 4. Products
Option to add the ‘check-in’ ability after initial set upIn addition to the features above, the list of business categories is different for each page type. As an example, Local Business Pages include categories such as Restaurant, Beauty Salon, Retail Shop etc. whereas Company Pages have categories such as Consulting/Business services.
Local Business or PlaceIf you have a ‘bricks and mortar’ store or want people to physically visit you, the Local Business or Place page is for you.
Features: 1. Contact information 2. Trading hours 3. Price range 4. Parking options 5. The ability of people to ‘check-in’ 6. Allows reviews 7. Map listing
If you think you have selected the wrong option for your business, you can always change it! Once you set up your Facebook Page, you can change the category by selecting Edit Page - > Update Info. Once you have changed the category, the details required will change according to the new category.
For NGO
Select Cause or Community. For instance Lions Club or Rotary Club. I am a member of the Rotary Club of Pune Lokmanyanagar. So we have a Facebook Page that is Cause or Community’
Public Figure:
For Consultants or Politicians, Select Public Figure. Artist Band or Public Figure. By the way, I have a Public Figure Page! Connect with the Social Media Trainer Jyotindra Zaveri Page
Like and do not forget to tick the 'See First' option.
Facebook Marketing
On Facebook, there are over two billion users log in every month. India is a great country. There are about 294 million users in India. That is about 29 Crore users in India. Whether you are using Facebook for branding or not, your competitors are using. A very big market opportunity waiting for you.
Facebook Messenger is the top mobile app by the number of downloads. And the main Facebook app is second on the list. The dominance of mobile implies that entrepreneurs need to make online content mobile friendly.
WhatsApp is third and Instagram is fifth in terms of downloads. Did you notice all these Apps are from the same company? Yes, Facebook is the leading company.
Focus on Gen Z
Baby Boomers: Baby boomers were born between 1944 and 1964. ...
Gen X: Gen X was born between 1965 - 1979 and are currently between 39-53 years old (82 million people in the U.S.)
Gen Y: Gen Y, or Millennials, were born between 1980 and 1994
Generation Z, are those born in 1995 or later.
Focus on Gen Z in 2019. Gen Z has entered the workforce, and this generation has over 75 million people who are not teenagers anymore – they are consumers who influence $600 billion of family spending. Gen Z can quickly and efficiently shift between work and play, with multiple distractions going on in the background...working on multiple tasks at once. Just think about how this kind of flow might reshape the office.
Consider this data: 80 million small and medium-size companies are marketing on Facebook on monthly basis. 25 million businesses promote their products on Instagram. 94% of B2B marketers promote their brand by posting regularly on LinkedIn.
The challenge is, how to keep up with the changes on various digital platforms. The answer is to read and study changes in social media sites. Better still come and meet me every Wednesday online at this time. Knowing the latest trends is a proven way to change your social media marketing strategy and sustain the company's success.
Snapchat and Instagram will be the most important social media channel in the year 2019, because Gen Z will dominate the market soon.
Include the following in your 2019 action plan:
1. Amongst your busy schedule does not forget to reply to people who are commenting on your post. This one task you need to do it yourself. All other normal postings etc. you may outsource but replying to comment need to be handled personally. This is almost a daily, or once at least once in two days task.
2. Another regular task in reviewing and revising keywords. This needs to be done once in three months.
3. If you are planning any EVENT, make sure you announce the same well in advance. In addition to Facebook Event, post on Meetup and Eventbrite. Do not forget to link the Eventbrite URL in your Instagram profile. See 'Get Ticket' button example (on mobile)
What do you think of the social media marketing trends for 2019? I will be happy to know more in the comments!

The gist of the points discussed is given below.
Social media networks can be used to increase your customer base and improve your bottom line. The knowledge you will learn from today’s session will enable you to successfully market your business with various digital platforms.
To get a large following for your social media marketing, do not just push products. Include testimonials, relevant articles, and links to content, your followers will find useful. I am here to help you!
I have observed some changes in YouTube. End screens do not work with annotations!
To use End screens in the YouTube video, please delete the annotations. Annotations can no longer be added or edited. Delete them and use end screens instead.
YouTube has discontinued annotations editor on May 2, 2017. YouTube will stop showing existing annotations to viewers starting January 15, 2019. All existing annotations will be removed.
Use cards and end screens. Annotation was not mobile friendly. These are mobile-friendly tools that let you poll your audience, link to merchandise, recommend a Playlist, or videos. Once deleted, annotations cannot be restored.
It is observed that end screens and cards generate seven times more clicks across YouTube. In short, Annotation is OUT and Cards and End Screen is IN.
Stay Active on social media.
Large gaps in between your posts and tweets may give the impression that your business is not active.
Post regularly. Once you have a social media presence, you should not discontinue posting. Do not let your online garden become dry and lifeless. Nurture it. If you do not have time, you may outsource to an experienced agency like Jyoti Social.

What is the difference between SEO and SMO?
SEO: Search Engine Optimization is the process and the utilization of internet technologies (tools) related to the World Wide Web that improves Google search engine ranking, websites visibility. The goal is to increase traffic to your traditional website. Very important for an eCommerce website to achieve higher sales.
SMO: Social media optimization (SMO) is the use of a number of social media sites and Groups (Online Communities) to generate publicity to increase the awareness of a product, service, brand, or Event. Search engine marketing needs SMO support. This can also drive traffic to the traditional website.
In the year 2019 make sure you are a presence at least on two or three social media platforms. And plan to post regularly. If your business is not active on social media, you are giving your competitor the opportunity to perform better than your business.
If you use social media to market your business, you need to constantly make adjustments so you can keep up with the changing platforms. So invest time and money to learn.
That is why I am conducting this free webinar every Wednesday to discuss what is new, and the latest trends and techniques.
LinkedIn Company page updates can be targeted to tailor content to specific audiences.
No, I am not talking about the post on your LinkedIn profile that is your ID; this is about your business Page. Updates can be targeted based on followers' profile data, such as company size, industry, function, seniority, geography, and language preference. There is a filter available on the LinkedIn page.
Important: To post a targeted update, you are required to have a minimum of 300 Company Page followers.
In 2019, be more professional in your email correspondence.
Use a professional email address.
Register a domain name, get a formal email id. Even if you do not make a website, it is ok. At least use email id with your web domain name. Not Gmail.
Do not click Reply All. Unless you really want everyone on the cc needs to receive the email,
Avoid too much use of the exclamation mark in email or social media posts.
Avoid too much use of capital letters. Avoid writing email or posts in UPPERCASE, it is like shouting.
The goal of Social Media Marketing is to produce content that users will share with their social network to help a company increase their brand exposure and broaden customer reach. The idea is to publish content regularly so that clients will keep coming back. Instead of you pushing the product, customers will come searching for you.
In 2019, we need to be more careful regarding phishing malware activities.
Some people have started using direct message and are sending a malicious link. Do not be hurry to click on Twitter Direct Message (DM) or Facebook Messenger links, unless you are positive they are reputable. They might contain malware. Or ask you to login into some fake site, phishing sites that will attempt to steal your passwords or financial information. It may try to install malware on your system or device.
How to find a fake celebrity account? Blue verification tick
Blue Tick
In case of a celebrity, or a Movie start, and political leaders social media accounts, check for the blue tick next to the name. See a blue circle with a white check, next to their Facebook name or Twitter handle.
Prepare a document for social media best practices for your organization.
You will need it in the New Year 2019. Establish official guidelines and restrictions for your staff, your team. All stakeholders of your organization. If you have already prepared one, then review and update your digital and social media risk management strategy and governance, including policies, processes, and programs.
Ensure you include instructions about how to secure both company pages as well as employee individual accounts.
Let me know if you need any help. I can guide you to prepare this important document. This will be a good reference to help protect your company.

Look at the larger picture! Think comprehensively. As the number and types of risks continue to expand, the responsibility for managing digital and social media risks extends well beyond the IT department.
Here is quick start list for Instagram paid marketing
1. You need a business account and connect to Facebook
2. Define your target audience: Whom you want to sell?
3. What could be their interest, so you can run an advertisement campaign for such a specific audience?
4. Define Target audience demographic details
5. Stories 14 seconds also is a good idea.
6. OR 59 - 60 Seconds video ad (or image). Will not run on stories
7. If you want only Instagram then do setting accordingly (not Automatic). Jyoti Social suggests, if you want Facebook campaign also, run separately.
8. Select Mobile or Desktop or both (Zaveri suggests both)
9. Select the lifetime budget or daily (Jyoti Social recommends
10. Lifetime, because it will optimize). Define the date range.
11. Select click line to ensure landing page view
12. Preview the ad
Best wishes for your Instagram marketing paid campaign.
If you are trying to learn social media from a book or a blog, check the date on which it was published. If it is too old, chances are some of the things written are obsolete.

Where is my Train?
Google has acquired one of India’s most popular train tracking apps. India is estimated to operate some 14,000 trains on a daily basis across the country. That kind of volume is challenging. Already 10 million registered users. It helps commuters track arrivals and departures as well as buying seats. The app is for Android, it works offline or with poor connectivity and supports eight languages.
That means RailYatri will have to compete with Google Where is my Train App
Social media is not for selling.
It is about relationship building. It is about increasing the number of people who know about you, your content, and business. It is not for making sales. I heard an entrepreneur crying the other day that he is posting on Facebook about his products and still not got even one order. It does not work that way. First of all, one month is too less a time. Use social media for branding not selling. Sales will follow.
As regards content, I suggest, in addition to promotional posts, plan some educational and entertaining posts also.
Create a content of value on social media that makes people want to follow you and engage with your post. Most companies, are not doing it right, they are constantly trying to sell or push products/services. On Whatsapp, it is even worse.
Everyone is talking about creating content, but there is another important aspect of social media that no one is talking about. That is not writing content but write a comment. Especially in a group, take part in the ongoing discussion. Write a meaningful comment, people will notice you. So do not be aloof and isolated, take part in the conversation.
Two things you must include are Link and Hashtags. Do not forget to put links to your website. For SEO these backlinks are important.
