Media społecznościowe w służbie Twojej firmy Social media stały się naszą codziennością. Budzimy się rano i zaglądamy do telefonu - w zależności od wieku i bańki, w której funkcjonujemy, są to Facebook, Instagram, X (dawny Twitter), TikTok, YouTube... Sprawdzamy, co słychać u znajomych i co się wydarzyło na świecie w czasie, gdy spaliśmy. A potem powtarzamy to samo przy śniadaniu, w drodze do pracy, jako przerywnik w wykonywaniu zadań, w trakcie powrotu do domu, podczas gotowania obiadu, a nawet gdy oglądamy film, czytamy książkę i spotykamy się z kimś towarzysko. Może to smutne, ale prawdziwe: nasze drugie, równoległe życie toczy się w mediach społecznościowych! Twojej działalności gospodarczej to oczywiście też dotyczy. Nawet jeśli zechcesz iść pod prąd i nie założysz żadnego profilu firmowego w mediach społecznościowych, Twój sklep, restauracja, firma usługowa i tak będą na Facebooku, w Google'u i innych miejscach w sieci. Pojawią się recenzje, polecenia, pytania. Trochę więc nie masz wyjścia - jeśli chcesz prowadzić firmę w XXI wieku, musisz ją prowadzić także w sieci. Jak to robić skutecznie? Które medium warto wybrać? Jak się w nim reklamować? Jak prowadzić efektywną komunikację z klientami? Tego wszystkiego dowiesz się z najnowszej, uaktualnionej odsłony kultowego już poradnika Marcina Żukowskiego. Książka w mediach: Tomzynska Bookstagram
Ty w social mediach. Podręcznik budowania marki osobistej dla każdego. Wydanie II poszerzone
Marcin Żukowski
Ty plus inni ludzie Każdy z nas jest marką. Ja, Ty, on i ona - jesteśmy sobą dla siebie, matką dla córki, ojcem dla syna, dzieckiem dla rodzica, mężem dla żony, szefową dla podwładnego. Twoja marka osobista to Ty plus - czyli Ty oraz otaczający Cię ludzie. Social media to także - ni mniej, ni więcej - ludzie. Nie aplikacje, nie narzędzia do ustawiania reklam, nie słodkie kotki ani równie słodkie pieski. Social media są niczym wielki rynek, agora, gdzie spotykamy znajomych i nieznajomych, robimy na nich pierwsze, drugie i trzecie wrażenie, rozmawiamy z nimi, zgadzamy się, spieramy... By móc wykorzystać media społecznościowe na swoją rzecz, musisz nauczyć się sprawnie w nich poruszać, czyli: wchodzić w adekwatne do Twoich potrzeb interakcje z obecnymi w nich ludźmi. Może myślisz teraz: "Eee, to nie dla mnie". Może nie prowadzisz aktywnie konta na Instagramie. Może na Facebooku jesteś tylko obserwatorem i czytelnikiem. Może nie masz swojego bloga i nie zaglądasz na blogi innych ludzi. Może Twitter Cię odstręcza. Jeśli potwierdzasz, że tak właśnie jest, musisz to zmienić! Bo dziś Twoja nieobecność w mediach społecznościowych oznacza nieobecność w ogóle! Jak w minutę dowiedzieć się czegoś o potencjalnym kontrahencie, pracowniku, nowo poznanej osobie? Wejść do internetu. Wszyscy to robią! Ty zapewne też. Nim zaczniesz czytać tę książkę, zrób eksperyment: wpisz w wyszukiwarkę swoje imię i nazwisko i sprawdź, co mówią o Tobie wyniki. Nic nie mówią? Mówią za mało, zbyt enigmatycznie? Mówią, ale nie tak, jak chcesz? Czas to zmienić. Daj się znaleźć i poznać innym!
