Social media is the next big thing for your business.
The difference between well targeted and appropriate use of social media and ‘amateur hour’ efforts will define the success of your business on the internet. This is an area that cannot be avoided for lack of understanding.
We focus on two kinds of social media networks:
1. Public Social Networks
We use social media tools like Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn to drive users to your website, allow your target audience to better communicate with you, improve your search engine results, monitor your business’s “social status” and much more.
We’ll assist you by:
- Assessing the need for social media for your business.
- Selecting an appropriate bouquet of social media platforms that best suit your requirements.
- Researching and creating content for these platforms that is targeted and improves your search engine optimisation.
- Measuring and reporting on the effectiveness of your social media.
- Continue to advise and fine tune your strategy every step of the way.
Our preferred social media applications are the most well known and used:
2. Private Social Networks
We design and develop custom social networking platforms using the best open source frameworks available. If you’re looking for a social and or business network for your employees to use internally the we’ve got just the right setup for you. Our solution can be branded and administered by your own staff allowing you full control of your company’s internal communications. You can even give your employees their own blogs using it.
Here are some of the features that will help to increase your staffs productivity and internal communication:
Groups and Forums.
Public, private or hidden groups can be set up by your staff to discuss specific topics in depth in an environment made just for that purpose.
Activity Streams.
There are global, personal and group activity streams which notify staff of updates on other member profiles and even member @mentions.
Private messaging.
This is available for more sensitive communications and can be specified to single or multiple recipients.
Friend connections.
Ah, but of course. Although these connections will mean that members can follow each others activity streams.
Extended profiles.
Your staff profiles will give other members in the organisation a good idea of who is who in the company.
Blogging.
Members can have access to creating their own blogs around subjects that are business or personal. The choice is yours.
