In this age of 21st century technology you are very likely to have heard about Social Media. Your first impression was probably linked with the younger generation socialising on Bebo or Facebook, and 'celebrities' adorning Twitter to speak for themselves rather than having the press speculate on their behalf. More recent times have proven businesses and companies are now waking up to the wealth of opportunities that the Social Media world can provide for them, at a fraction of the cost.
Are you struggling to understand all of the jargon associated with social media? Not sure about re-tweets on Twitter or fan pages on Facebook? Are you trying to understand how using Social Media can fit in with your current marketing activity?
TiYo is here to help you branch out into the rewarding world that is Social Media, all from one 'easy to use' platform... TiYo.com
The specialist's at TiYo are there to guide you every step of the way, they have first-hand experience in Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter and YouTube, and can help get you followers specific to your area or product. Once you are accustomed to the system we can supply 'plain English' guides that will ensure you continue to get optimum results.
With Social Media you are conversing directly with the audience who have shown an interest in the product or service you provide. It is excellent for promoting your company via multi-way interactive conversation whilst engaging with your clients.
A good example of companies using Social Media is the Canal Court Hotel, in Newry, Northern Ireland. They have over 6 and half thousand followers on their Facebook page and make regular appealing updates regarding the hotel, its offers and its staff through Social Media.
They use the page to keep fans informed of hotel offers, competitions, free give-aways, to promote live sporting events, offer immediate late availability deals, and much more. In their updates they interactively converse with their fans which in turn bring a personal touch to this type of marketing. The fans use the page to check availability and offers, to be kept informed of updates and to express gratitude where due.
A recent post (in April 2011) from a satisfied customer on the Canal Court Hotel's page read..
Unreal stay. The room was amazing !
Special thanks 2 Debra the manager , for great choice off room .
The two receptionists Emma & Donna , and the bar waitresses Sonya & Tanya. From "Sean & Cathy". :) Top of Form
The reply read.. "Hi Cathy, Really glad you & Sean enjoyed your stay!! Lovely meeting you & hope to see you again soon!! :) You just shout when you want a night out and we'll make sure Sean is off!! :)"
This post was viewed by thousands of people who have shown an interested in this Hotel, a comment like the one above has much more meaning than one perhaps featured in a brochure. The comment is real and therefore has a much stronger grounding.
Another example was a recent post stating.. "Fancy a Night Away! Late availability offer for Friday 15th April ?35 Per Person Sharing Bed & Breakfast. All you have to do is give us a call and quote "Facebook Late Availability Offer". Don't Forget Live Traditional Music Every Friday in our Granary Bar!!"
Even if as little as ONE PERCENT of the hotel's fans took up this offer their bookings for this night, bookings would jump by whopping 66, and this figure is based on just 1% of fans taking up the offer.
This is a prime example of companies using social media for business, you too could branch out into this rewarding world with the help of TiYo.
