Social Media Wednesday LIVE Season 2 Episode # 01. 25 March 2020


Social Media Wednesday LIVE Season 2 Episode # 01. 

25 March 2020




Original Facebook LIVE video is embedded here in this Blogger Blog

I am Jyotindra Zaveri, your friendly social media marketing consultant and trainer. 

I suggest you keep a pen and a notebook ready to jot down points. I will be discussing many essential aspects, takeaway and homework!
-
GIST OF POINTS DISCUSSED:
Because of the current health situation, a lot of us are working from home. Even if you cannot go to your usual places to network face-to-face with others at meetings or social events, you can still take action and build up your networking online.

First of all, Fear is the hidden enemy. 

Important Takeaway: Do not let FEAR paralyze you. Let us use technology, such as Facebook LIVE to communicate.  

The challenge today is how to remain active and productive staying at home?

Plan your time daily, say about an hour, to reach out to a few people each day in your social media network and fix an appointment to WhatsApp call.  You are welcome to call me on 

WhatsApp in the evening: +91 9552946949 at a mutually convenient time. 

There are many ways to connect with others, even if not face to face. Send a connection request, to those whom you had met in the past, on LinkedIn or Facebook. Take out all those business cards and reestablish relations. Send a Thank You message using the Facebook Messenger or LinkedIn Message option. Do not spam. Remember, the purpose is to establish a relationship. 
Homework: Expand your network on Facebook and LinkedIn. 
Have an actual conversation with them. If both you and that person are comfortable with setting up a video call, I recommend connecting with them at a scheduled time on WhatsApp or Skype or similar, video platform.

Not only chat about each other's businesses but ask how they are doing personally. Find out if there are ways you can help them.  Share how you plan to utilize the time at home. Exchange ideas. Maybe you will learn something. 

Fortunately, people can still build meaningful and useful relationships, even if they are stuck inside their homes.

Homework: Schedule WhatsApp video calls. Fix Date and time mutually convenient for audio or video call.
-
Every business wants to be the customer's first choice. Building and managing a brand can play a significant part in making that happen.  A strong brand can make any business stand out from the crowd, particularly in competitive markets. 

Let us mentally be prepared to cope up with social distancing for another month or so.  I hope the situation will improve. 

Important Takeaway:Utilize your time in learning some new skill.  
-
Most of you must be using Facebook and maybe LinkedIn for business marketing. But, I would like you to use all the super seven platforms.

Social media सोशीयल मीडिया TIPS & HACKS Live 65 on 24 October 2018

Social media सोशीयल मीडिया TIPS & HACKS discussed LIVE

1. LinkedIn Connect can be Follow
2. LinkedIn Native Video

Social media is evolving, and in order to properly advertise your business, you can keep evolving as well.


What is new in LinkedIn?
Now You Can Switch Your LinkedIn Profile Button from 'Connect' to 'FOLLOW'. LinkedIn is now giving all users the option to display a 'Follow' button as the main CTA on their profile page, as opposed to the current 'Connect' prompt. By the way CTA means Call To Action

Therefore, if you are getting too many 'Connect' requests and you are not able to cope up with the same. You may select to display 'Follow' button on your LinkedIn profile instead of default button 'Connect'.

When members follow you, they are more likely to see your content in their feed. This allows members to stay up to date with topics they care about and join your conversation.  

Facebook has been putting a lot of emphasis on video content in their news feed lately. 

Video Marketing

It is important to note that 60% of videos on YouTube are watched on mobile devices and the sharing rate is also higher on mobile devices.
It doesn’t matter what age group your audience is — most of the time, they will want to watch a short video rather than read a paragraph.

The most important advantage of adding video marketing to your marketing budget is its ability to improve your conversion rates.  The latest studies reveal that more than 74% of users who watches an explainer video went on the buy the particular product or service as a result. The effectiveness of video is obvious since vision is the most dominant sense for a majority of us. Most of the information transmitted to our brain is visual. Just imagine what a video can do to boost the conversion rates of your business under such circumstances! That’s why you need to invest in a reputed video marketing agency to draw up an effective video marketing plan for your business.

Videos help build trust among your customers. Trust is one of the most important components of a good business.

Jyoti Social Team specialise in creating stunning short videos of 60 seconds duration. Let us know if you want to try our services.

A good video will allow increasing the time spent on your social media or on your legacy website, by your visitors.

Native videos

Do Architect use social media?
Yes they do. Architects, Doctors, Lawyers they are all on social media. However, they cannot do direct advertisements.

SEO tips

Time to get a mentor or senior consultant
Each startup has specific business challenges, and there is no one-size-fits-all digital marketing strategy, when it comes to growth and efficiency. But if you’re finding your business needs are not being met by your current mentor or consultant, it may be time to evaluate a new experienced mentor or social media consultant, like me.

Finding and working with the right influencers. Of course, one of the most critical factors in any influencer-marketing program is your team’s ability to find the right people to work with and set the stage for a successful long-term collaboration. It also may be the most challenging part of the equation, as it involves multiple tasks, including:

Becoming familiar with the notable voices in your industry
Vetting potential partners to identify those who share your brand values and perspectives, and who will resonate with your target audience
Engaging top candidates and soliciting their participation
Negotiating specific terms, fees, and deliverables
Seeding, tracking, and managing their efforts on an ongoing basis

”It is better to be approximately Right than Accurately Wrong.”

Do not hesitate to experiment with digital platforms.
