Excerpt from Chapter 4

“My company tries to keep our social media content strategies short and to the point. The document produced from the massive amount of data points in step one can then, in most cases, be dialed down to two or three pages.

What’s the benefit of this exercise? When a brand develops a logo and/or a website, a set of standards that results from that process is then used to maintain consistency for the company’s future marketing efforts. These elements are usually put into what’s called a brand standards guide. This way, any employee, vendor or partner working on marketing materials and communications for the brand knows what to use and how to use it.”


Let’s face it - All businesses could utilize social media in some way. To finish this chapter and read about more strategies, tactics and ways to market in our technological era,  click here.
