Successful startups LISTEN at least as much as they TALK and this post explains how.

Social Media Work Flow RESET

Social Media Work Flow RESET | Information Technology & Social Media News | Scoop.it

I think this Infographic has aged. If you follow its outline you risk talking to yourself about yourself, a social media No No. Here is how I would rest the ideal 50 social media work week (as if such a thing actually existed :):


8 Hours Curating
4 Hours Bogging (writing)

4 Hours Listening (checking Topsy and quantifying results)

4 Hours Conversations (curating comments, commenting on others)

4 Hours Research, Planning, Analytics

4 Contignecy & Emergencies

4 Movements (i.e. "super campaigns")

8 Hours OPEN

============

40 hours

 

I don't believe is schedule every minute of any social media outline. There must be larger blocks for responding, planning, analytics and tweaking. I also don't like "campaigns" as much as created temed movements.

Five Secret Social Media Marketing Trends ScentTrail Marketing

Five Secret Social Media Marketing Trends ScentTrail Marketing | Information Technology & Social Media News | Scoop.it

Wrote this piece almost a year ago and it quickly beccame a "Most Popular ScentTrail" with lots of great comments and over 1100 views. Most of it holds up. There is a reference to LiveStrong and Lance Armstrong that is dated, but main ideas seem more right than wrong. 

What do you think? More right than wrong?

SEO Writing Tip - How To Avoid STOP Words

SEO Writing Tip - How To Avoid STOP Words | Information Technology & Social Media News | Scoop.it

Better SEO Writing

Just Scooped a great #infographic about SEO Writing that didn't mention some of my favorite tips or anything about "stop words" so I added 5 tips to the Scoop and wrote a quick ScentTrail Marketing post about Stop Words:

15 SEO Writing Tips (10 Infographic, 5 from me)

SEO Writing - Eliminate Stop Words (ScentTrail Marketing)

 

There is great news about the elimination of stop words. When you tune your writing to use shorter sentences, smaller paragraphs and reduces stop words your copy reads faster and so becomes more engaging. Win Win.

I sometime write long sentences; so when I saw these tips about the elimination of STOP words, I had to Scoop this.

Thanks for the Rescoop Kathy. Shortening your sentences, more Hemingway than Faulkner, can have positive impacts on SEO and visitor engagement. Marty

Social Media Is My JOB
After the Evolv study came out showing how social media addicts may be a company's best employees I realized Social Media, something I'd been feeling guilty about spending time doing, IS my job as Marketing Director for the web design and software development company Atlantic BT in Raleigh.

5 Ways To Disrupt Your Internet Marketing [ + Marty Note For Startups]

5 Ways To Disrupt Your Internet Marketing  [ + Marty Note For Startups] | Information Technology & Social Media News | Scoop.it

I don't like to say Internet marketers MUST do things without sharing HOW to do them.

 

This follow up piece to Why Your Internet Marketing Must Disrupt To Win shares 5 ways to disrupt your business vertical. Here are 5 ways you set THEIR (your competitors) houses on fire while your Internet marketing goes into overdrive.

You might think startups are disruptive on their face. To be a startup is to be disruptive. Yeah, not so much as it turns out. Startups are often highly disruptive around their invention and highly conventional in the rest of their approach. 

In my Startup Heroes articles for Technorati I interviewed a number of successful entrepreneurs. Every startup who achieved scale understood how to play the Chinese Finger Puzzle game of Internet marketing. 

Startups such as ShareFile, sold to Citrix for $50M, balanced disruptive roots with becoming an adult, with growing up and responding to a quickly maturing marketplace with more disruption. 

Content marketing is a rapidly maturing idea. We are beyond the tipping point now so low hanging fruit was eaten by others. This means you must DISRUPT to win.


Hate to welcome a new generation of small businesses to Internet marketing just in time to say what you thought you would be doing, content marketing, isn't going to be enough by half. 

Sorry and welcome to Internet marketing.
