Want to Reach a New Audience? Have Bloggers Write about Your Business? Create a Social Media Event
June 4, 2009
Recently Goldsmith Jewelers of Utah hosted a private social media event for Utah bloggers. Their objective was to increase foot traffic into their store and it was a smashing success.
Janet Meiners Thaeler “Newspapergirl” pictured left wrote an excellent article about this social media marketing event for Open Forum, American Express. Jyl Patte of Mom it Forward helped coordinate the event with Sprout Marketing.
You might consider your own campaign for your business. I recommend this type of marketing because it’s a win for everyone involved–bloggers get to see what you do firsthand and then report and share with their communities offering some sort of review, a coupon, and perhaps even a giveaway, companies get to reach a new audience they have never met before and potential clients trust the voice and experience of the blogger to bring them a good recommendation.
If you do this type of campaign, just make sure you consider the objective is clear of what you wish to accomplish and make sure everyone who is involved in planning the event understands (that you want to increase sales, build visibility online through new press,etc.) so at the end you can see how your time and dollars benefitted. You might hire a consultant to support you in your campaign if you don’t know other bloggers in your industry or are not savvy with social media networks such as Facebook, Linkedin, or Twitter.
