The Cost Of Being Right vs. When It's Ok To Shut Up - 0 views

  •  
    Last weekend, I did something that I don't usually do. I took my kids to see a movie, Ice Age: Continental Drift. I don't usually attend the movies because I can't stand sitting through all the inappropriate previews that my kids shouldn't see, but that is another blog post altogether. The day before we went to see the movie, I called our local Regal theater to ask some questions about ages and pricing. I wanted to pre-purchase our tickets so that we could skip the long and boring line.

What's Your Story? (And How Well Are You Telling It?) - 0 views

  •  
    They say that a picture is worth a 1000 words. I say it is worth 1000 emotions. After reading Gini Dietrich's post last week appropriately titled "The 10 Things I Want to Do Before I Die", I was reminded of how I want to get my masters in photojournalism. Photography, both taking photos and looking at them, is one of my favorite escapes. When I look at photos, I'm teleported to another time or space. I've spent countless hours looking at Zach Arias 'and Ansel Adams' art as well as hundreds of others.

Why Handing over Social Media to an Intern is a Bad Idea - 0 views

  •  
    I was surprised at the advice the "old guy" on the panel, Jay Goltz of The Goltz Group, gave to this business owner. He essentially said to hand over the social media tasks for your business to a college intern, and seemed to imply that using social media for marketing is a waste of this business owner's time. Judging by his own website and social media presence (or lack thereof), he has taken his own advice.

    The hackers are at it again. Over 6 million LinkedIn passwords were compromised this morning and leaked on to the Internet. Additionally, the same hacker is also looking for a new girlfriend or boyfriend and has compromised over 1.5 million passwords from eHarmony. It's tough finding love out there, even for hackers.

What Are Facebook Promoted Posts? - 0 views

  •  
    Facebook promoted posts. I don't know whether to be grateful or annoyed. I'm sure rumors will start circulating that Facebook is starting to charge pages to post, so I figured I'd get ahead of the rumors. Is Facebook going to start charging pages to post to their own fans? The short answer to this question is: NO. Facebook pages are free for businesses to use just like they always have, and it's free to post updates to those that like your business page.

Keyword Density is dead...enter "Thing Density" - 0 views

  •  
    From Google's perspective it is imperative for Google to provide the most relevant results based upon the user's query. And every update and major algorithm change is done with that concept in mind. That being said the old concepts of keyword density really do not hold to be true any longer.

Pinning Your Hopes On Social Media - 0 views

  •  
    It's not enough in today's culturally and socially aware market to provide customers in the QSR industry with a superior product; they want more. Consumers in today's day and age want deals, coupons, and they want the best possible product for the least amount of money they can possibly spend. They also want their opinions to be heard and treated with respect.

How To Stop Social Cam From Embarassing You - 0 views

  •  
    When Social Cam first came out, I thought it was spam because of all of the weird videos that were being posted - and from people I did not expect to be watching them. Now that I know it's not spam (though I could still argue that it's a form of spam), I am embarrassed for my friends that were naive with their Facebook privacy settings and allowed Social Cam to have full reign of their Facebook account.

Blast From The Marketing Past - 0 views

  •  
    Marketing is a hit or miss proposition in the world of the QSR industry and sometimes you're better off saving the money you'd spend on advertising campaigns and use it other worthwhile projects such as installing brand new storefront signs. At least you know you'd be getting your money's worth with the new signs compared to a marketing blitz for your QSR franchise if the campaign were to be deemed a dud.

A Guide To Facebook Page Post Analytics - 0 views

  •  
    I am loving the new Post Analytics feature that Facebook rolled out for Facebook Pages this week. I'm sure Facebook added it so that more people will buy Promoted Posts, but it is very helpful for page owners in a lot of ways. And what's great is the Post Analytics display in close to real time, so you immediately have a sense of how many people are seeing your message.
