Although this blog below this introduction is addressed to the best people on the planet, our IMU Social Media clients and friends, anyone can follow the bullets below and increase LIKES and followers. Remember, only Lady Gaga gets easy Facebook and Twitter love. It takes time to build clients, and it takes effort BY YOU to build an organically rich following! Read and use the following…

We wanted to touch base with you and let you know how much we appreciate the opportunity to continue to serve you each and every month with the social media visibility. Although IMU Social Media tries very hard to maintain the integrity and quality of your blogs, posts, and tweets; we ask for some help whenever possible.

If you have an upcoming event, are attending a conference, or discover an article in the newspaper or on a website that would make a great blog, send it to us. The more ideas you might have, the better the quality of the social media. No one knows your business like you do.

It cannot be emphasized more that social media is just a part of your overall branding strategy. The more people who know you are online, the stronger your presence. We suggest the following ten ways to increase your “viral volume”.

  • Comment on your blogs and posts.
  • Have your employees LIKE and follow the activities of the organization on Facebook and Twitter.
  • Place a sign in the window announcing your Facebook presence.
  • Place at sign at the reception or waiting area with your Facebook and Twitter URL’s.
  • Put your Facebook, Twitter, and blog information on your business card, stationary, website and newsletter.
  • Put your Facebook and Twitter information in the signature on all outbound e-mails.
  • When your employees are on the phone with clients have them conclude the conversation with, “Have you liked us yet on Facebook and Twitter?”
  • Consider an online contest or giveaway that can be promoted.
  • Have a Facebook event “offline” at your offices. 
  • Invite your friends, family, neighbors, and associates to like, follow or read what has been posted.

It is fun to have organic growth within the popular platforms. There are 800 million people on Facebook and 300 million on Twitter. According to a recent study, people go to Facebook four out of five times when they go online. We want them on your sites!
