New Book Helps Make Your Business Ideas More Social

New Book Helps Make Your Business Ideas More Social Getting New Followers, Friends and Customers How will you market and promote your business now and in the future, even if your business is you? One answer Ive heard is: “Social media, of course!” Or another answer is: “Im going to continue to rely on my past customers and word-of-mouth.” Social media is not a magic wand solution. Word-of-mouth is great but can only get you so far. The good news is, both answers are on the right track because they are based on the understanding that you cant grow your business alone. So how do you go from 0 to 17,000 followers, or 0 to 800 likes or even 0 to 10,000 views? What I know from growing my own business is that it can be done, I did it, and yes, it requires a lot of sweat equity and time. But one of the most important lessons I learned was that I needed to belong to a community in order to make an impact. I couldnt do it alone. Ta da!
