Ten steps to greater exposure in 2010
- Strategy
- Link Building
- Community – Participate
- Community – Build
- Communicate – Blog
- Communicate – Email
- Make it Personal
- Talk the Talk
- Give it Time
- Review & Analyze
2010 is going to be great! Am I just an optimist? Nope. I simply have a plan for my marketing. 2010 marketing is going to be all about communication. “Wait!” you say. “2009 was all about communication!” It’s true, but 2009 was a year of introductions. Twitter really hit its stride and the fad calmed. Facebook exploded and has become practically ubiquitous. LinkedIn is no longer just a place for the technologically ambitious networker. The Mobile Web is something we’re all actually experiencing (Thank you Apple and Google). The past couple of years have been a tipping point for the Internet. We are now in a new era of interactivity and understanding. Across generations and levels of geekdom, the web and its 2.0/Social Media interactivity have become a part of daily life.
So for marketing, 2010 will be not about the hype, the fads, the technology. It will be about using these technologies to better communicate and connect with our markets. This is a year in which marketers and consumers are in sync when it comes to platforms and expectations. There will be amazing technological advances and new services for sure (The iPad, Google Buzz). But we have finally reached a widespread sense of comfort with both the technologies and styles of the interactive web.
