What is Social Media Coaching?

What is Social Media Coaching?

Wikipedia Definition: “Social media is an umbrella term that defines the various activities that integrate technology, social interaction, and the construction of words and pictures. This interaction, and the manner in which information is presented, depends on the varied perspectives and “building” of shared meaning, as people share their stories, and understandings.”

In other words, it’s a way to communicate to your customers about your business and expertise. Social media is about getting your customers to sell for you and tell others about you! We help you navigate the waters and customize a social media solution that works for your business which is unlike any other.

At XSitePro Web Design, we offer the following Social Media Coaching Package ($1,500) in which our CEO, Craig Seaton, will give you private lessons on the following:

Social Media Consultation and Business Plan: We look at your current forms of communication and help you zero in on the best ways to build on them using Social Media. We present you with a scalable Social Media Business Plan personalized for your company. We start where you are, with the basics or taking what you know and growing upon it.

LinkedIn Set-Up/Coaching: We can set up a profile for you if you aren't already LinkedIn and teach you how to use this platform to gain customers and network with colleagues, business partners and businesses in general. This helps you reach thousands of business partners and potential customers on a platform that’s meant for business.

Personal one-on-one training with someone in your company to learn how to use these tools most effectively. We take it slowly and don’t push you.

You’ll learn the secrets of how we built our own company from the ground up using social media every single day.

Bottom line, Desiree walks the walk and is a sought after social and online marketing leader.

The Best Blogging Techniques for your business. Blogging is a HUGE part of a social media strategy that tends to be overlooked. We’ll teach you the most effective ways to blog. We’ll even point you to a Master Class (affiliate link) from one of the best bloggers out there, Chris Brogan.
P.S. In case you’re wondering, blogging and social media involve creating and publishing engaging content that connects directly with customers and prospects via your own website. The result: you’ll increase your business exposure, improve customer satisfaction, build strong brand advocates, generate quality leads and achieve sales growth. Who doesn't want that?

P.P.S. Studies show that consumers prefer to work with businesses that have a strong social media presence. It’s not too late to get your business engaged with customers (and prospects) through a blog and social media. If you wait, you’ll be giving your blogging competitors a significant advantage that will be hard to overcome.
