Your Branding With Social Media Fortress

Protecting Your Business & Brand Using Social Media Networks

What other better way online can a business make its brand name visible and known other than via the use of Social Media Websites and other web 2.0 properties? These social websites are where people hang out today and savvy business owners are taking the opportunity to cultivate and engage their prospects and customers from these platforms.

The goal of most business owners is to make money. This often results with the selling of a particular product or service. However, to sell that product or service, business owners need to alert the general public of their products, services and brands.

When it comes to advertising and getting the brand name of your business out there, there are many business owners who literally cringe. This does not necessarily have to be as there are other ways or channels to promote your business and brand in order to be seen as an authority in your area without having to break the bank.

One of the ways that you can do this and even make the giant search engines such as Google to know more about who you are and what your business is all about, in order for Google to be able to present your website to those searching for it online, is to search these popular and emerging social media websites and then secure your brand or business name from their platforms.

In fact, you can head over to KnowEm, which is a great website that allows you to check for the availability of your brand or business name on over 500 popular and emerging social media websites, in order to see if your business or brand name is still available so that you can work towards securing it.

Equally, depending on what your business is trading as (Personal name or Business name), you will need to create your own profile page or business profile page. One needs to be careful when making the online webpage or profile as there is need to ensure that the personal or business profile page being created have the name of the business as the title of the page, in order to secure the business or brand name on the social media page being created. For example, a business trading as ABC Plumbing would like to have ‘ABC Plumbing’ as the name and title of the social media pages created.

These web 2.0 properties and social media websites including popular ones such as Facebook, Google+, Yelp, Foursquare, Blogger, etc, will not only allow you to share your business information, but also will allow you to use them as avenues to develop effective business relationships with prospects and customers alike by receiving genuine reviews and enquiries off them.

We also understood from the conversations we had from most business owners in the past that finding the time to do secure their brands on social media can be a challenge and sometimes when they can afford the time, the skill or knowledge to building these social web properties in the right way for their businesses can sometimes be daunting.
