Using email and offline activities to drive Social media followers and fans

July 26, 2013

Growing your social media channel fans and followers is an aim of many companies who want to engage more with clients and potential customers. And a smart way to build up your social media fan base is to leverage email to help build your audience, increase response, and strengthen customer relationships.

Take a multi-channel approach to growing your opt-in list via mass media advertising, point of sale, QR codes, etc. Consider whether you need to offer incentives for opt-ins, and if so, how you can earn audience loyalty beyond that initial lure. Offer subscribers exclusive access and relevant content based on the expectations you establish during the opt-in process.

If you have a strong email database you use for regular email communications, consider specific emails asking them to join you on Facebook or Twitter. Chances are if they are interested in what you have to say during regular email communications they will be more likely to follow your social media pages.

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.

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.
