Social Media for Construction and Industrial
If you are an owner or manager of a Calgary construction or industrial company, you may think social media marketing will not fit your marketing. The truth is social media sites are a critical element of your business. Consider these scenarios:
- HR Recruiting: Many companies spend thousands of dollars with newspaper ads or by paying for listings on websites such as Workopolis. Almost no one is setting up a company account on a social media site, managing the growing community, and targeting ads at the workers they need. We're doing this for a Calgary company and have saved them over $50,000 in recruiting costs in the past 18 months. What's great about this is that your online community will continue to grow making it a more and more valuable asset to your company.
- Public Relations: A news-worthy story happens in your business but the media doesn't think it's important, or it happens on a busy news day. Social media enables you to be a news maker. With some good stakeholder engagement strategies, you have the potential of doing a better job than the media could. Journalists follow social media channels and many times what was first posted on Twitter or Facebook became mainstream news.
- Relationship Building: You have clients; are those clients using social media? Using social media as a relationship builder or B2B promotion tool can be very effective.
- Marketing: Social media sites have a very strong marketing aspect. From increasing website traffic, SEO, and research opportunities, there are many reasons an industrial business should be on social media
