Social Media Marketing is a whole new animal. Dealing with Social Media you must remember that people go on these sites to "Socialize". The last thing on their minds is buying something. Therefore, a different approach is warrented. So, New at Social Media Marketing? Let's Get Started.

Creating a social media marketing campaign is really not that difficult. You just start at the beginning, your Profile.

When building your social media profile, you might be tempted to put in favorite music and other personal likes. DON'T, this is suppose to reflect a Professional Marketer. Adding personal info and likes only detract from your main purpose. Instead, keep your post as generic as possible. Generic, but Professional.

After creating your profile, you will want to get as many followers as possible. You can offer freebies, coupons or other deals to get people interested. The freebie and coupons should be relevant to your business. When offering deals, make sure there are expiration dates on them. You certainly don't want to get blindsided with an old deal that you'll have to make good on.

How you treat people. Treat them with respect, they aren't the only ones who might see your interaction. Some people you can't please, no matter what. Be polite and be patient. Keep your interaction professional, don't get too personal. Being a little personal will be just fine.

Update your page often. Updating every other hour can annoy your followers (Too Much)! Try to figure out when most of your followers will be online, and pick that time to do your update. If no one responds to your update, don't keep sending it. You might have to rework your message and wait a day to resend it.

Setting up a social media marketing campaign isn't hard, but it does take some work on your part. Getting to know your followers is the key to marketing to them.
