It will go a long way to boost awareness and create your reputation that eventually clients will trust.
So here are OPT’s last minute tips on building an online presence and brand. Take note!
1. Research your audience and know whom you are selling to. Utilize Google’s many tools and resources to get facts and figures.
2. Based on your research, give you brand a voice. Whether it is someone in the company of note, or yourself, this will become the foundation and ‘human touch’ for your brand. Give them a real and true idea of who you are and connect.
3. Use a real mix of online media to enhance your brand. Targeted ads to a targeted audience, watching behaviors. Make sure that all online avenues are linked and giving out the same message and be consistent.
4. Plan your social media campaigns, think about what you want your brand to say and what you want it to achieve and work backwards. Use Facebook, Twitter, You Tube, Linked In and other sites like Stumbleupon to spread your pages wide.
5. Strategies are necessary. Strategies for marketing, networking, branding and so on. Take time to sit and really think about each one and then put into practice!
All of these tips will aid the building process and can also work with rebranding. Something we will cover another time.
