We asked Elaine Starling, Founder of Starling Media Services, Inc. to answer a few questions about her upcoming complimentary lunch & learn webinar this Thursday November 19 at 12:00 noon Pacific Time (Business Growth Through Social Media):
1. What would you say to those who haven’t gotten into Social Media or are resistant to getting into it?
People usually haven’t gotten into social media yet because they aren’t sure how to apply it to their current business strategies. Social Media tools offer faster, more streamlined ways to get information you need for your business – things like competitive information. Done correctly, Social Media can save you time and money. Learn the basics and start small. Apply solid strategy and you’ll be successful.
2. How much time do you recommend that people spend on Social Media?
You can get significant benefits from social media in as little as 30 minutes a day.
3. What are the key pitfalls that you see people fall into when they start to use Social Media?
Social Media can be addictive. Often people find themselves spending too much time on Social Media. They get distracted and go off strategy. Stay focused, keep to a schedule, and you’ll see great value in it.
4. Finally, what is one of the exciting Social Medai challenges that you have helped a team or company overcome? and something that we can learn from?
I’m working with www.InspireMeToday.com, a site designed to inspire people because inspired people are more productive and effective. The founder, Gail Goodwin, started using Twitter about a year ago. She now has over 30,000 followers and just got a private interview with Sir Richard Branson. You can network very effectively using Social Media in strategic ways.
Join us this Thursday November 19 to learn more!
