The recent full page color ad in USA Today shows a brilliant example of using New Media i.e. Social Media, specifically Twitter and Traditional Media i.e. advertising in the USA Today.  Trident Gum is doing what many brands are implementing with TV advertising, pulling viewers or in this case readers into different media outlets by cross promoting them in advertising.

When working with our Social Media Marketing clients at Square Martini Media we often discuss all current advertising methods and create ways to pull them together.  By linking different audiences or fans across multiple media platforms you create a synergy in your marketing efforts and increase the overall impact.   This is a major part in our clients marketing and Social Media strategy and should be included in yours.

One of the great things about Social Media is the many additional tools you can use.  There are so many Social Media tools available now and new ones coming online everyday no one could never try them all!  One of these great tools I have really enjoyed using lately is TweetChat.  I have used it  for Gravity Summit, The Cool Twitter Conferences, and the San Diego Twestival and TweetUp events.  So what are the Top 7 Reasons?

One of the many questions we hear at Square Martini Media during our initial Social Media strategy discussions is “does Social Media really work to increase business?”.  With this question in mind we will now start posting Social Media case studies and success stories more often on Square Martini Media.  You can see a few of our past stories by reviewing the Twitter Talk Radio posts.

Our first case study involves using twitter to attract new customers, engage current customers, and increase sales.

One of the great things about working as a Social Media Strategist in the Social Media San Diego Scene is the “SOCIAL” part! We’ll be working hard all day serving our clients, but we won’t be missing this event!  Last year, Twestival raised over $250,000 for clean drinking water in over 200 cities around the globe.  How can you pass up the opportunity to be involved with something so spectacular and for such a great social causes?

I’m not kidding…

I don’t work for Blog World Expo…

It really did….

And if you are a business owner who wants to learn more about Social Media and you’ve been looking for a one-stop learning experience where you can immerse yourself in an environment and really understand what the Social Media industry is all about, well folks, this is the one.  Not to mention you get the bonus opportunity to learn all about podcasting because Blog World Expo merged with New Media Expo this year too (the premier conference for podcasters).
