The Difference Between Social Media and Your Complete Online Presence

Online Presence is anything and everything that is digital from your domain name, including your website and email, social media, blogs, online shop, online sweepstakes, email blasts, digital advertising and any number of other things you can think of that lives on the internet.

Being a social media manager, we would focus on that limited aspect of your online presence.  However, if you don’t have several pieces in place, your social media is not going to have a strong impact.  We once described social media as the 4th domino.  In order for you to effectively knock over that 4th domino, you have to make sure the first 3 are lined up properly.

As a marketing company, we sit down to discuss what your goals are.  What can we do to help you advance your sales or reach? How can we utilize the power of the internet to grow your business and your brand?  If you jump right to social media, you are missing out on some of the most important aspects of not only online marketing, but some of the most important aspects of your overall presence.

When someone walks into the room and instantly commands the room and the audience.  That person is has incredible presence.  Does your online presence announce authority?  Are you telling people that you are the person that they need to buy their widgets from?  Or are you just one of the crowd?  No one ever recommended an average doctor.  No one cares to talk about their mediocre mechanic.  Just like the person who owns the room the second they walk in; your online presence has to announce that you are here and you are ready to do business.
