One of the neatest things that I have discovered in the world of Social Marketing and WEB 2.0 is the availability of methods available to users that allow you and me to post in one place and have that information show up all over the internet.
Well… not Everywhere… but at least in a LOT of places! There's a phrase that I first heard from my friend the "Niche Prof" and that phrase is: "Economy of Action." What that means is that when you learn how and where to post most effectively, your posts will (if you have the setup done in advance) appear on numerous other pages at other Social Marketing sites where you have accounts.
How many times have you been looking through pages online and seen something that you'd love to share with your friends? If you browse with Firefox and have the "ShareAholic" plug-in installed, doing that "share" is a couple of clicks away… Want the ShareAholic plug-in? Google it and you'll be taken to the download page. Install it and you'll have a little Green Icon to the left of your Browser's address bar. When any page address is displayed (that you want to share) simply click the Green Icon and a window pops on-screen with links to several Social Marketing sites that you can share this address on. Places like Twitter, FaceBook and Delicious to name a few. There are many more and I do imagine the list will continue to grow?
So, taking the term "Economy of Action" into view… you find something to share, click the "Green Icon" and away you go… sharing your newfound info with your friends. Get it? This saves a lot of steps… and shares it INSTANTLY with anyone looking at their Twitter or FaceBook page… which it seems like many people all-but live on these days.
More tips, in another post soon…
