Integration of Social Media with Mainline Marketing Programs is Key to Success in 2010

Corvallis, OR (PRWEB) January 6, 2010

A social media strategy cannot stand alone to fully promote a brand, said Hope-Johnstone, to reach full marketing impact, you must integrate social media into a complete marketing approach. You must develop a marketing strategy that reaches as many of the ‘touch points’ as possible with your consumers.

Based on the popularity of his social media blog, http://www.buzzmaster.wordpress.com and his marketing book, How to Market Tourism in the 21st Century, http://www.johnhopejohnstone.com, John Hope-Johnstone has opened a new Public Relations and Social Media coaching organization “HPR Social Media”. HPR assists organizations and individuals to integrate their social media campaigns within their full marketing program.

“We heard clients say too often,” continued Hope-Johnstone, “that they were cutting back on other marketing tools and adding more social media because they believe that it’s inexpensive. Well, social media is labor intensive and, if done properly, it is not cheap.”

Social media is another tool in the markekting arsenal, it is not a stand alone product, as it is being used by so many organizations today.

We have, in the past, continued Hope-Johnstone, tried stand alone social media strategies. While they provided adequate public relations returns, they did not reach their full potential until they were combined into a unified program that utilized as many of the tools of marketing as possible. In 2009, Corvallis Tourism under my direction won the Governors Tourism Award for New Marketing Programs by integrating a social media strategy with other marketing tools, we would not have had the amazing results we achieved in that promotion, had we not used social media combined with other marketing tools to create a complete marketing approach.

HPR Social Media has developed a suite of scenarios that combine excellent social media strategies that complement and support the full brand marketing program. They are part of the gestalt of marketing and not separate.

In November 2009, HPR began coaching diverse clients in social media integration including; Tourism regions such as Sunset Country in Ontario Canada, Real Estate companies, Trade Associations, Community Colleges and non-profit organizations.

The response to our social media integration technique has been overwhelming, stated John Hope-Johnstone, We offer Social Media integration. We also offer social media seminars and one-on-one coaching. We are not bound geographically and use WebEx to reach organizations and individuals through live Webinars when in-person is not a possibility. This allows us to offer our services nationally and internationally.

As Economy Crisis Tightens Belts, EasyDrupalTutorials.com"s Weekend Seminar Enables Realistic Own Business Success

Las Vegas, NV (PRWEB) October 9, 2008

With the current financial crisis leaving thousands on the employment scrap heap, people are now looking at self-employment to offer more control in their professional and personal lives. A key part of new business success is having a professional website to attract and maintain customers, yet too many businesses ignore this because of cost. A weekend seminar in Canada hosted by Easy Drupal Tutorials (http://www.easydrupaltutorials.com/get-free-tutorial.html) will show prospective business owners how to build their own fully interactive website cost-effectively.

The seminar is aimed at people who want to build their own business website but are missing the technical know-how. Using the Drupal Content Management System (CMS) as the platform to build from, the seminar will explain why Drupal offers the most effective, interactive and easy-to-implement features of any website building tool.

“There are numerous CMS platforms for building websites,” states founder of Easy Drupal Tutorials, Rene Tse, “although there are probably only three that matter – Drupal, WordPress and Joomla. While each have their pros and cons, Drupal is by far the most comprehensive yet easy-to-manage CMS on the market. My seminar will show people how to get a fully interactive and profitable site up within hours.”

The features offered by the Drupal Content Management System are perfect for newcomers to website building and management. For potential new business owners, Drupal also provides a platform from which to build a highly profitable customer base and community:

Free tools to increase online visibility, including RSS feeds, e-commerce, video blogging and newsletter sign-up
Interactive event calendars and directions, placing customers at a specific business address
Multi-user option to build dedicated visitor or customer forum and user base
“With Drupal, the power truly is in the hands of the user,” adds Rene. “Now, instead of having to pay a web designer between $ 3,000-$ 5,000 to set up a website for you, and then another $ 500-$ 1,000 to maintain and update it, you have complete control. If you can use something like Microsoft Word and copy paste folders and images on your computer, you can use Drupal. Combined with the knowledge gained at my seminar, as well as my intuitive Mind Maps solution (http://www.easydrupaltutorials.com/pdf/funnyladies.jpg) which offers a visual representation of a word or topic and ensures a fuller understanding, the dream of running your own business with a professional website will be reality within hours.”

The Easy Drupal Training Seminar (http://www.easydrupaltutorials.com/) will be held over the weekend of November 14, November 15 and November 16, 2008 at the Pacific Inn Resort Hotel & Conference Centre in White Rock/Surrey, BC, Canada.

Southern California Architectural Photographer Chet Frohlich Loves Helping his Clients Attain Success in Their Advertising and Marketing Campaigns

San Clemente, CA (PRWEB) September 10, 2010

Architectural photographer Chet Frohlich loves helping his clients attain success in their advertising and marketing campaigns. A veteran photographer with over 25 years of experience and a proven track record, his work is crisp and clean.

Perhaps best noted for his highly technical lighting capabilities, Frohlich regularly works with ad agencies, graphic design firms, art directors, and individual companies to provide extraordinary photography for some of America’s top builders and architects.

With a degree in photographic communications, Frohlich makes a great creative partner. His understanding of the building industry coupled with his talent for photographing architecture makes him a superb choice for photographing new homes, large multifamily projects, resorts, hotels, and commercial buildings.

With numerous awards for his clients, one of the projects he photographed for HG Fenton Company, Aquatera, was recently named Rental Community of the Year in the San Diego Mark of Excellence awards . (You can read more about this at http://chetfrohlich.wordpress.com ). In the 2007 MAME awards his photography appeared in whopping seventeen categories as a semifinalist and three categories as a first place winner. His growing client list includes the likes of Pardee , KTGY, William Lyon, KB Home, Fairfield Properties, the Irvine Company, P11 Creative, and many others.

Chet Frohlich Photography is located in Orange County California and he regularly works throughout Arizona and Nevada. Frohlich likes his business location and feels like being situated right between Los Angeles and San Diego is the perfect place to be.

Samples of his work can be seen on his web site at http://www.cmfphoto.com

Recently Chet Frohlich also started a small stock photography agency called OC Stock Photos. The idea was not to compete with the giants but to be a boutique agency that specializes in stock photography of Orange County. There are lots of local shots of cities like Anaheim, Laguna Beach, and everything that represents The OC. The site is up and starting to sell great local images that reflect the lifestyle and feel of Orange County. Right now about a dozen photographers are contributing to the site but Frohlich expects to double that by the end of the year. All and all its a neat concept delivered by great photographers who take pride in their work, says Frohlich. We hope to continue on a steady path of growth and improvement for sometime to come. The staff is friendly and helpful leaning towards an old fashioned way of doing business. You can visit them on http://www.ocstockphotos.com

Bay Area Web Designer Marissa Berger Presents Five Ways to Track the Success of a Website

Concord, CA (PRWEB) November 17, 2011

Marissa Berger, founder of Marissa Berger Interactive (mb/i), a San Francisco Bay Area web design firm, presents in her blog five quick tracking mechanisms which can be used to monitor a websites performance:

1) Unique E-mail Address: This can easily identify the lead source of e-mail inquiries. Instead of using info@ for everything, determine which sources are important and give them unique email addresses. They can all forward to the main address for ease of use.

2) Unique Phone Number: It is now easier to own multiple phone numbers with Google Voice, Vonage, etc. The same concept applies as with e-mail addresses; identify what is important to track and put those numbers (and the appropriate voicemail messages) in place.

3) Unique URLs: Use the Content Management System (CMS) available on the website to create new pages and assign unique URLs. The unique URLs can later be used to track the traffic of any kind of marketing performed online or offline.

4) Forms: If applicable, capture visitors information when giving out downloadable items or complimentary services. Give each form a different source name to keep track which items or services are more popular.

5) Google Analytics: This is a free service which provides a great deal of data on how the site is being used. Site owners and managers can make educated marketing decisions based on this data. Web developers can offer assistance on interpreting the results.

Give your website a chance. Put tracking mechanisms in place and learn about your online audience, says Berger.

For more information on this San Francisco Bay Area web designer and any of mb/i’s products or services, call (925) 435-1514 or visit them on the web at http://www.marissaberger.com/. MB/I offers a complimentary 30-60 minute consultation by phone or in person, depending on the caller’s location.

About Marissa Berger Interactive

Marissa Berger Interactive (mb/i) is a San Francisco Bay Area web design company that specializes in popular open-source content management systems such as Drupal and WordPress. MB/I has been developing websites since 2000 and has a diverse online portfolio of more than 125 websites.

Being Well Center Releases Free Screeners to Determine Likelihood of Success at College for ADD/ADHD Students

Pittsburgh, PA (PRWEB) June 18, 2012

The Being Well Center, http://www.thebeingwellcenter.com, located in Pittsburgh PA and a worldwide leader in ADD/ADHD diagnosis and treatment, is releasing a set of diagnostic screeners that pinpoint potential barriers to success for students entering into or currently struggling in college. Available as a free resource to parents and students, the Confidence@College (C@C) screeners take into account the whole person and are rooted in The Being Well Centers philosophy that independence and success can be achieved in spite of the challenges of ADD/ADHD, temperamental extremes, learning disabilities, language disorders, and mental health problems.

Through its Confidence@College program, The Being Well Center systematically and accurately identifies all contributors to possible college failure and develops individualized success plans. Confidence@College provides ongoing long distance support to struggling college students via a team of doctors, counselors, and educational specialists who utilize innovative technologies to meet with patients throughout the semester. Download the free C@C screeners at http://www.thebeingwellcenter.com/about_service_cc.php

The Being Well Center has pioneered a treatment program, Confidence@College, tailored to college students who may struggle with new demands for independence, time/task management, social decision making, problem solving, and self-advocacy that college presents. The BWCs college screeners are a key element in the C@C programs initiative to identify and treat at-risk students before they fail or drop out of college. The screeners help parents and students identify the temperamental extremes, skill weaknesses, attentional differences, health challenges, stressors and attitudes that can pose barriers to success at college.

Parents are frustrated that nagging, pleading, and threatening just doesnt work when it comes to success at college. They lack confidence that their kids wills succeed and worry that their huge investment in their childs education will disappear down the drain. The fear and frustration is no less for the student, who may have great intentions but quickly gets behind the 8-ball and then avoids or lies about where things really stand, observes BWC founder and medical director, Dr. Craig B. Liden.

Spanky Media Delivers Affordable Web Design that Leads to the Success of New Online Entrepreneurs

Perth, Western Australia (PRWEB) June 18, 2012

As the leading website developer in Australia, Spanky Media has delivered affordable yet quality web designs so that new online entrepreneurs can have better leverage over their competitors.

According to the Australian Bureau of Statistics, about 76% of the population or roughly 16 million Australians browse the Internet. Around 85% of Internet users engage in online shopping. With the high statistics of Australians using the Internet for various applications, it ranked twenty-fourth in the list of countries with the most Internet users all over the world.

For this reason, establishing a website is a good way to increase the revenue of a particular company. Businesses with websites will be able to reach a lot of their target clients all over the world within a limited span of time. But online campaigns are not enough to ensure the success of online entrepreneurs. In 2007, Google reported to have 8,058,044,651 web pages on the Internet. Excluding the number of web pages that were not indexed, thus there might be more than 8 billion websites present in the World Wide Web. With thousands of new websites created daily, it is difficult for a new online entrepreneur to have leverage over its competitors.

On the other hand, a study conducted by IBM showed that about 17% of Australian consumers prefer to use technology when shopping. The same study also showed that 90% of Australian consumers admit that social networks save them a lot of time in shopping. In addition, 40% of them use websites for comparing products, services and prices. This is the reason why big companies have already established their own websites in order to get more revenue for their business. David Jones CEO Paul Zahra noted that website developments can transform businesses into a fully integrated multi-channel retailer.

While big companies have already established their own websites, small online entrepreneurs find it challenging to establish an efficient one on their own, thus they hire website development companies. Spanky Media, one of the leading website developers in Australia, delivers affordable website design to new online entrepreneurs.

Establishing a website can help businesses increase their revenue with proper online promotion. This can be achieved by using different strategies such as social media integration and using custom WordPress applications to deliver affordable yet effective website development especially for entrepreneurs who are still starting out.

Spanky Media sees the need of new online entrepreneurs to have their own websites to jumpstart their success. They have developed plans to deliver affordable yet quality strategies that will establish websites for small to medium-sized entrepreneurs all over the country.

For more information regarding affordable web designs, you may contact Spanky Media by calling 1300 729 261 or visiting their website at http://spankymedia.com.au/.

FastWebFormula2 Becomes The Internet Marketing Success Of The Year

(PRWEB) September 30, 2010

September 2010 saw the elite of the internet marketing world descend upon Sydney, Australia, to be guests at James Schramkos most recent high level internet marketing training, FastWebFormula2.

Two hundred participants from Canada, the US, UK and Asia, along with many Aussies, were delivered three days of hard-hitting, up-to-the-minute strategies designed to put their online businesses on steroids.

James discussed the business of internet marketing, about how knowing your market and leveraging this knowledge was one of the biggest keys to success. That several members of the Market Samurai keyword and niche research team were present was testament to the importance of careful planning before implementation.

Domaining and Site Flipping

Domaining is perhaps one of the hottest niches in the industry, and no less than three guests spoke to this topic. Australian internet pioneer, Simon Johnson shared priceless information on how to find, evaluate, buy and manage websites and domains. Englishman Kenny Goodman discussed strategies for renovating and flipping (reselling) domains, while David Jenyns gave great insights into how to determine the value of a website. (He also revealed what he believes will be the next red-hot market in domains.)

American Allstars

One of the biggest draw cards to FastWebFormula2 was the man often described as the most ripped off copywriter in the world, John Carlton. John doesnt speak publicly very often, preferring to share his techniques and strategies with those in his mentoring groups. But travel from the US to Australia for this event he did, and those fortunate enough to hear him not just discuss, but demonstrate, simple copywriting techniques, were spellbound.

Cory Boatright dominates the real estate investing online niche, and discussed how others could use his strategies to do so in their own niches.

Brian Johnson demonstrated the strategies that he and Rich Scheffren, have implemented to get results for their company, Strategic Profits, of which others mostly dream.

WordPress Queen, Leanne King

The platform of choice for internet marketers and bloggers is without doubt WordPress, and Leanne King has been crowned the WordPress Queen in recognition of her standing in the WordPress community, and of her 900 page book on the topic which has for many become their WordPress bible. Leanne previewed her Mindmap for WordPress implementation and leverage – and revealed plugins and tools that she uses, and in many cases, had created, for her use.

Leanne certainly left the audience wanting more, and there is no doubt that she will feature more prominently in a future FastWebFormula3, and indeed other international internet events.

SuperFastResults Mystery Man Exposed

Schramko operates a professional internet marketing forum, SuperFastResults, with an up-until-FastWebFormula2 partner known only as Andy G. Andy was revealed as Swiss affiliate marketing aficionado, Andy Grand – and the generous way he shared his strategies made him a firm favorite of the fast-note-taking participants.

DVD Opportunity

At no other time have so many genuinely successful exponents of internet marketing come together in a teaching environment created by James Schramko in FastWebFormula2. Realizing that not everyone could get their hands on a ticket, and recognizing that traveling to Australia was not possible for many others, Schramko invested in a professional film and editing crew to record the whole three-day event.

These DVDs of FastWebFormula2 can now be pre-ordered at a special price for a limited period only. This could very well be the only opportunity to see so many business and internet marketing experts of this calibre share their real, proven, strategies for success.

FastWebFormula2 DVDs many be ordered at: http://www.fastwebformula2.com

About James Schramko:

James Schramko is a Sydney based Internet Marketer who fired his boss in May 2008. Since then his internet marketing business has grown exponentially. James has not just mastered the essential skills you need to be a success on the internet, but he is applying them in innovative ways that have skyrocketed him to international renown.

Before developing his own information products and internet marketing tools, James started making money on the internet in a way we all can by selling other people’s products as an affiliate often earning a high commission per sale, without having a product, or the responsibility of stocking and delivering it.

James continues to developed his suite information products and automated profit systems that are in demand by the top internet marketers around the world (they now call him for advice!). In so doing he indulges his passion for product development and innovation, and mentoring students in high-level and ethical internet marketing.

Coordinator Reveals Why The James Schramko Fast Web Formula 3 Event Was A Success

Sunshine Coast, Australia (PRWEB) October 31, 2011

From October 28-30, 2011, James Schramko, widely regarded as one of the most genuine and strategic internet marketers in the world, conducted the third in his Fast Web Formula series of training events – the only one for 2011. According to the event coordinator, Kerry Finch, many factors combined to make this one so very successful.

Many of those present had either attended James Fast Web Formula, Fast Web Formula 2 or one of his earlier workshops — so they were building on a solid foundation. said Ms Finch. Because of this they were perfectly placed to identify how these new learnings could be applied to their current businesses.

The Fast Web Formula events are known for the delivery of emerging trends and analysis of new tools for growing online businesses. Guest presenters are chosen by Schramko for their expertise in very specific areas, and all have one thing in common – they are the real trendsetters in their fields.

The strategies that were shared by James, and his niche experts, were cutting-edge. In many cases they were yet to be shared with others in the internet marketing world, explained Ms Finch.

Participants traveled to Australia from the US, Canada, the UK, Singapore, Switzerland and the United Arab Emirates to attend FastWebFormula 3. They created what Ms Finch described as a dynamic networking environment — an opportunity for them to meet face to face to celebrate their successes and seek guidance on any challenges they face.

Niche experts included:

> Leanne King, known as WPQueen for her intimate knowledge of the WordPress CMS. She created a live website build from stage in just minutes, using a plugin that awed the audience.

> Google Adwords expert Mike Rhodes, who dispelled many of the PPC myths and identified Adwords best practices

> The SuperAffiliateGuy, Andy G, who traveled from Switzerland to reveal some of the strategies he currently uses to test and measure his campaigns

> Jennifer Sheahan, from FBAdsLab, who cut through the myths and misconceptions about facebook marketing – a little controversial in parts

Of course, for many the highlights were the James Schramko sessions said Ms Finch. James revealed his new Mafia Plan, showed the tools he was now using to streamline his business, and discussed and demonstrated how he tests and measures every facet of his hugely successful online business.

Acknowledging that not everyone was in a position to travel to Australia for FastWebFormula3, Schramko had the full three day event filmed, and the digital download is now available for pre-order at http://www.fastwebformulas.com

How to Visualize Business Success: Jenny Trautman Weighs In

Roswell, GA (PRWEB) October 18, 2012

Jenny Trautman, Principal Graphic Facilitator at Evenview, has over twenty-five years of experience in teaching businesses how to create and implement a shared vision for business success. In a blog post released today by Company.com, the social network for small business, Trautman discusses the power of visuals and provides examples of tools that facilitate vision building and collaboration.

Why is having a visual or graphic aid so compelling? Trautman says that about 65% of people are visual learners, meaning they have to see something to process and retain what they are taking in. About 30% of people are auditory learners. This group of people usually learns best by being a part of the conversation and then seeing a summary of what was said during the meeting. The rest of the 5% are kinesthetic learners who work best in collaborative processes. As a result, both internal and external meetings are filled with people who learn best in different contexts.

If you learn some easy graphics and you get used to going into conversations where you are really looking for rich meaning and true collaboration, what will happen is that your group will be able to see outlier ideas and synthesize those with some familiar ones. The result is that youll come out with something that is so much stronger than what you would normally get, Trautman explains.

To learn more about graphic facilitation and how to visualize business success, go to the Company Insight blog, a resource for business owners and entrepreneurs at: http://companyinsight.wordpress.com/2012/10/12/visualizing-business-success/

Climbing the Ladder of Success Drupal has Arrived, Ahead of Wordpress and Joomla

New York, NY (PRWEB) June 23, 2010

WordPress, Joomla and Drupal have thus far been seen to be the three most popular open source Content Management Systems in use on the Internet today. However, things have now changed at least, the order of popularity is very definitely changing and rapidly! Drupal, which arrived on the scene circa 2006, is a rising high class threat to the others, especially with the latest release a premium Drupal theme ST Nagara, designed by SymphonyThemes.com .

If we place ST Nagara under the ‘Systems microscope’ we find a quality clone of the well-established BBC system. So what’s so good about that? Simply, but not solely, it takes the best of BBC and completes the rest with a consistent look. This enables the user to enjoy a smart grid base layout, enriched typography and the various colour options of ST Nagara (see the demo of Nagara). The British Broadcasting Corporation, well known for many facets of communication for more than eighty years, has a magazines publishing division that now uses Drupal on its several websites.

WHAT CAN YOU CREATE WITH DRUPAL?

That’s easy…from a simple personal homepage to a full company website Drupal provides you with the tool to create anything from a basic home page to a sophisticated commercial entity, Weblog, Dating Website or whatever your favourite type of website might be. There’s almost no limit or restriction on your creative ability with Drupal. With heaps of themes and modules Drupal and ST Nagara the sky’s the limit and the only boundary is your own imagination.

THE RISE

Drupal’s rise to the top is due in large part to the fact that more web designers are now choosing Drupal to use in the development of their more detailed and comprehensive designs. Once they discovered the ease with which Drupal can be applied to choose the ‘use-right-away-templates’ and then to develop websites via these premade tools it became ‘no contest’. Drupal can be the first choice for beginners and experts alike.

So, if you are just starting out as a web developer or you’ve been in the Internet business for years you couldn’t do better than move in with Drupal and the Drupal theme ST Nagara. Together they will show you the way to appealing and successful websites. At the same time they make it very easy to work up a great site that will be more likely to do for you just what you want it to all you have to do is to get alongside what has been described as the easiest Content Management System that’s alive and kicking on the world wide web.

The fact that Drupal is a free modular CMS makes the system even more incredible. In this day of the almighty dollar being just that almighty, to be able to enjoy a FREE option in website tools and, at the same time, to have these tools of the highest quality is amazing!

The added bonus that the entire Drupal framework is open source and therefore freely available to everyone is yet another feather in the Drupal cap. When we consider the raison d’etre for the Internet’s existence, that of communication, we have to place Drupal at the top of the pile.
