Dear Mr and Mrs business owner,
If someone comes to your business and tells you that they can get you involved in social media and pitches FaceBook and Twitter juuuuuust a little bit too much….
Do this: just say No!
If they tell you that they themselves have a large “following” that can help you…
Do this: just say No!
If they tell you that they can run these accounts for you…
Do this: just say No!
Please don’t be intimidated by these new online tools. They really are not that difficult to understand ONCE you have gone through a STRATEGY that outlines what they can help you with, what the potential ROI is and why you belong there (if at all!!!!!). Don’t be bullied, do your homework and ask around about this persons reputation and ROI with other clients.
And I will say it again, DO NOT outsource this to someone that you would not want to represent YOU in a board meeting with investors and/or potential clients.
Good luck.
