3 Great Resources for Small Businesses
3 Great Resources for Small Businesses
Grow your business with these simple tools and tricks. Or at the very least, bring ease to running your online presence. Our online world is rapidly developing and the importance of having a personable rapport with your clients is more crucial than ever.
As our technological world develops, so does its users- and aside from offering a mobile friendly and user experience centered website, our clients and perspective clients expect us to know their names, and even a little about them.
Notifier
As the website suggests, “Easiest way to 3x your traffic & shares. We’ll find @mentions in your post and let you notify them with one click.”
Get the most out of the content you create for your website by reaching your full potential audience. Simply, scan your post and compose a notification to your mentions. At Truemax Design, our clients may recognize this because of the ‘trackback’ method, i.e, hyperlinking the subject to their mentioned title so they will receive a notification by email.
The most relative difference in product that we can notice is that Notifier tweets your mentions, and uses social media as their way of contact. Which could be beneficial for third parties.
Ultimately, you should trackback, pingback or notify your mentions to create a better SEO for your website. Plus, it’s great to work with others!
Sociograph
This is perfect for those who run more than one page on Facebook, or those who want to compare their insights to others.
Sociograph gives you an inside look at insights- see what’s working for your competitors, and yourself. At this time of the year, you want to stay on top of who is visiting your website, and although Facebook offers the same functionality on their Pages Manager, you may find this resource a little more helpful simply for the inside look at your competition.
Mailchimp
It’s no secret how great Mailchimp is. Send amazing emails to your personalized lists using their responsive, email layouts. A 2013 study from IDC Research found that 80% of smartphone users check their mobile devices within 15 minutes of waking up each morning. As I admit myself, I am an avid email checker.
Email marketing is very important, it’s easier to keep a client happy rather than search for new ones. Plus, we all know how ‘word of mouth,’ is the best kind of referral. Mailchimp lets your clients unsubscribe from your email list very easily, keeping them happy.
There are an infinite amount of resources out there! Our best advice is to set your priorities first, who do you want to reach? Once you have that answer, what you are looking for becomes simpler. And if it doesn’t exist, it should within a couple months because that is just how advanced, amazing and knowledgeable our world is. If you don’t want to wait on someone else, you can create it yourself.
