what little personal social media so
that you could help in business owners
incorporate social media into the
business was disturbed that we have a
very special guest Beth Bridges
thank you so much for being with us
can you tell us a little about self
contained therein
the instituted
survive letter
and allied u
in this for business owners because
that's what the closing because
where this is association
were small businesses large businesses
here at the present focus area
and the membership director i've been
here at the agenda for ten years
t
that's the self
self get in and one of the is
networking officer
which i i did that
quite a few years ago
that would end social media really
became a tool for us
here's
predicted gents frightened so you can't
say i'm a social media manager for the
chambers
recently at universities
a little bit of an hour
with social media demand
phones a little bit about the what's
going on about that because it puts it
for small businesses
or businesses in general
it was on the list
by web site called online n_b_a_ cage
dot com
at the top
one hundred most social media frenzy
chambers of commerce
sobering does the monarchy rs in the
united states
are we on the list with throw
butler forty-three
at the top one hundred most social media
printing scholars
the united states
fast economically into georgette
which is a little bit better sedition
bahar
just a little
and right now that's not
we have to get out of all the california
chambers that were on the list
and really pleased to be recognized so
close to the social media played your
role promotion
xanadu
socially is not true only
word
acting from our perspective ways fine
and you want to reach as many people as
possible
in your target market with that final
and and weak
variety of ways
tipped phil gramm to reach people
most of which is
when i took this job ten years ago
i made
a small interviewed with state which
anybody who's watching this isn't
marketing
worsted
in marketing and looking into marketing
of a new interview for a carpenter
and and they say
d_n_a_ tests in france
you must ask
what is your marketing budget lives
needed at that
aspect of it it would have said wages
little hewlett-packard
several really not allot
advertising and marketing resources
of course the chamber of commerce
in is in circles twelve of those people
who voted
in business air is a chamber of commerce
the or
city
and
we have a very good management we debate
patties
which is extremely well that although
most people don't act up we run
it happens
hands
we've also been fortunate in that part
newsletter
those out to the general population of
city
so that's something we have for years
inserted pain
sounds great marketing channel great
advertising check out the general
awareness of the chamber and then
one of the things that in levity
intensely
act since day one
is the network
personal
networking going out meeting people
being where our business
on earth are
and then
social media release added another
venue for the network
and that's why i think it has and
networking
relationship that will
and not necessarily all appetizing
venue course i say that was trying out
some advertising
these things
web electorate that that you still
incorporate a lot of the face-to-face
type activities
it's not just sort of media because
ultimately it is
networking with students to the states
put online and so it's important that
you have to be reached its it's not a
complete replacement right and so that
or it has not played exact has not
placed it simply at home
used by reads by reached
as you said
it's it's the contest increasingly more
important
for a couple of reasons one
intact but
unappetizing but haphazard knowledge
work with
social media still free
as far as money
tired of all time this year
it's free
and so i have to leverage that
and then
well seizing and anything for
themselves
that right there is extremely valuable
us in almost a whole different
uses it in that your what
the community recurrence in particular
close forward since a lot
his reappeared
there
there'd
and so far from u
and then how do or advice that you get
to
uh... business owners service
if i could get to disincentives for
their same way we want
and that is the focus on getting value
that is the most important thing
tremendous insist that states it is
about networking
you have to find
what do i know at that time
for use
that i can share
and
it doesn't matter what you do
you've got some kind of knowledge that
you can
really what you should do is ask
yourself not so much how can i sell to
my target audience
what kind of problems
judy sol
and how high share information that's
all problems
economy experts
your communities
sensibility and it you can't beat
mention mentioned
acting
hardest thing
that businesses have
within face but
business whereas boosted their personal
twitter
in personal letters
proclivities pretty much over the past
what happened once uh...
which i did
