The internet has opened up a huge opportunity for people to discuss your business / product, to post reviews - both negative and positive, and to discuss in forums and chats everything they have experienced with your brand. What, you don't the negative reviews out there - then you need to get involved in the conversation.

There are so many more ways you can be involved in conversation before it even gets to be a negative review.

Join online communities, LinkedIn groups, Facebook conversations that are concerned with your industry or product. Contribute to the conversation. But be honest and transparent. Don't just market your brand, offer your expert advise, help solve problems and become a trusted online source.

Customer engagement has never been as important than now with online and social media playing such a large role in peoples buying decisions. Get involved in the conversation - after all, your really just doing what you would do with a customer face-to-face, offering advice and providing solutions.

What is paid, earned, shared and owned media?

By Erica Williams • February 8, 2023
Media is complex. Much more than it used to be. Since the dawn of the internet and rise of social media, the number of media options has exploded. For a marketing manager, they are like pieces of a puzzle, interconnecting and working together. So, how does a marketing manager make the pieces form a nice, big, beautiful picture, to successfully stand out not only amongst the competition but above the vast array of media noise? American digital marketing expert, Gini Dietrich, identified four types of media: Paid, Earned, Shared and Owned. She called it the PESO model . Here we look at the four types of media. We describe and analyse each one and discuss how they all fit together.

Icon celebrates 20 years in business

By Joe Papadatos • February 5, 2023
When we launched in 2003, the trend in agencies was to provide a specialist service, like creative or media buying. But we saw the opportunity to offer full-service marketing to our clients, taking the pain away from managing multiple agencies with multiple processes. We’ve chosen to continue to base ourselves in the Macarthur region, moving to Campbelltown in our current office nearly six years ago.  This has enabled us to build strong working relationships with many companies in our region including property developers, builders, manufacturers, local Councils, venues, and many more. We’ve also worked with loads of companies outside the region which is becoming so much easier with the aid of technology. We’re not just suppliers, but genuine business partners. I’d like to thank the many clients I’ve worked alongside in the past 20 years and look forward to continuing many of those relationships.
