The Rest of the World Does!

Social Media is changing business marketing.  Hotels, restaurants, conference centres – to grow your hospitality  business and increase your bottom line, you must go to where your  guests and customers are spending their time.  You’ll find them on Social Media … all day, every day, and the numbers are staggering:

• Over 750 million people actively use Facebook every day
• 200 million people have Twitter accounts
• Each day, 490 million people are unique YouTube users
• 100 million people from 200 countries use LinkedIn, and
• Foursquare has 75 million users.

That’s only five out of hundreds of social media sites and, by the time you read this, those numbers will have grown by millions more.

Are you one of those millions who are already there?  Shouldn’t you be? Contact Ann Jordan-Mills and her team at Social Sites and Written Words to show you how.

Proof – it’s for large and small businesses

Business Insider recently wrote: “…there is abundant proof in the marketplace of the financial returns to both large and small businesses, the low cost of entry, and the ubiquity of social networks. Dell announced years ago that it had earned $3 million in revenue from using Twitter, and other businesses report daily on increases in web traffic up to 800%.”

For example: In a recent interview, a company called Foiled Cupcakes, from the Chicago area, stated they exceeded their projected sales by 600% in less than two years.

You could do that, too.
