Putting Social Media to work for the Health and Safety Industry and beyond!

You’ve probably heard of Social Media – Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google+ etc – and may even use it yourself at home. But did you know that these platforms also offer extraordinary opportunities for your business?

Although these tools are generally completely free to use, your business will need to invest time and effort to make sure your Social Media conversations make some kind of return. You will also need to ensure that you avoid the common pitfalls that can destroy your business reputation within seconds.

Social Media – Why, What and Who?

There are many benefits to using Social Media:

• You can connect with millions of new people across the world within minutes.
• You can establish your expertise and credibility online.
• You can build a community of followers who can in turn become your customers.
• You can turn your customers into brand advocates, helping amplify your marketing message.
• You can publish important news, advisories or warnings to a global audience within seconds.

Social Media offers another channel for you to spread the word about your products, services or industry news. And I can help you.
