Imagine having clear answers to these kinds of questions when it comes to using social media to try and grow your business:

What do I say?

How often should I post?

What channels should I use?

What type of content should I share?

How do I keep track of it all?

How can I know this is actually growing my business?

Over the last several years, our team at NSM Brand Media has created and published thousands of pieces of content for all kinds of businesses in a wide range of industry categories.

We’ve put everything we’ve learned into this program so it can help you too:

https://www.myrealsuccess.ca/courses/socialmedia

It will answer all those questions for you and much, much more.

Are you using social media on behalf of your business, or feel like you could be? Or should be?

Great!

What's your plan?

What's your system?

What's your strategy?

And more importantly … what's your message?

Who are you trying to reach with it?

… and why would they care?

Remember, social media is simply a communication tool.

Using it to help grow a small-to-midsize business is not the same thing as using it to become a professional “influencer” … or even how you might use it personally.

Want to show your team how to use the tool - how to achieve REAL success with social media marketing for your small-to-midsize business?

This half-day session will be a game-changer.

Learn more and/or set up a discovery call, comment "social" or send us a DM and we'll get in touch.

Could you use some help with having an effective social media plan, system & strategy for your small business?

We just added Module 7 into our brand-new online program, "How to Achieve REAL Success with Social Media for Small Business."

Module 7 is "What Channel(s) Should I Use" and it just went live the other day.

Among other things, Module 7 addresses:

- The most common combination of channels used by ongoing NSM Brand Media clients over the last several years.

- Which channel provides the best visual analytics (and it’s not even close).

- The channel we (at NSM Brand Media) have never been asked for.

- What channels are very popular overall but might not be the best for a local business operating inside a certain geographic area.

- Understanding personal vs professional accounts and why it matters it matters to a small business.

- Whether or not we should be basing our social media approach for our business on trending sounds and popular music.

Here's the link to the program site:

http://www.myrealsucces.ca

Use the code PRESALE at checkout to get 40% off while the program is still in pre-sale. You'll get immediate access to the first 7 modules and will be among the first to get the rest of the course.

By the way, customers of that program will also have the opportunity to become affiliates so they can earn extra $$ when recommending it to others.

Hope it helps!

PS - The question on the screen behind me is a good one for anyone using social media for their business to be asking themselves. It's part of the course too. 😉

Ever struggle with what to say or share on the social media feeds designed to help grow your business?

It could be you're not sure you even have the time to create the posts even if you did feel sure of what to say.

Well, did you know that there are several different types of content you could use and that one of them doesn't involve you having to create anything at all?

It's true. And it's so obvious we often overlook it because we feel we need to be doing something else.

This subject is explored in more depth in the sixth module that we've just added to our new online program, "How to Achieve REAL Success with Social Media for Small Business."

Module 6 is "What Should I Post? Content Types & Topics" and will be a HUGE help to you if you've ever felt unsure about what to post.

If you're looking for help with social media marketing, nab this program while it's in presale, giving you immediate access to the first six modules (and the rest of the course to come) for a heavily discounted price (including the option to split the payments).

Use the code PRESALE at checkout to get an additional 40% off.

By they way, Module 7 is "Which Channel(s) Should I Use?" It's been recorded and will be available very soon. 🙂

Hope it helps!

So happy spring is finally ---

Oh.

Right. 😒

03/29/2024

We hear this all the time.

We lovingly disagree.

It's like saying you should never let your sales rep show themselves to their potential clients - polished and perfected brochures and flyers only, but no face-to-face.

Nonsense.

03/26/2024

Kevin will be presenting at 4pm at BizCon Business Expo in Mississauga tomorrow (Wed, March 27th) and we'll be on the trade show floor throughout the afternoon.

Looking forward to seeing old and new friends alike!

03/25/2024

Looking forward to it!

Interested in a simple, organic, foolproof solution for achieving REAL success with social media for your business?

Join Kevin, President of NSM Brand Media + Creator & Host of the "Little Engines" Small Business Support Community, this coming Wednesday. He'll be workshopping a "3-Step Guaranteed Social Media Success Recipe" starting at 4pm.

03/25/2024

Sending you good wishes for a great week. 😊

03/23/2024

Kevin, when someone tries to explain to him why he should just do the same thing as everybody else. 😅

03/22/2024

No, you look human.

Which is relatable to other humans.

It's attractive. Genuine. Sincere.

Being good with who we actually are is not only good for us personally, but it's a great social media marketing strategy for small businesses too.

Yet so many of us seem to think we need to look or be "perfect."

Sorry, but "perfect" ain't relatable.

Or attainable.

03/20/2024

We believe people are interested in other people.

Maybe that's because we're so genuinely interested in other people, who they uniquely are, why they do what they do, how they're uniquely equipped to serve others and who it is exactly that they're trying to serve.

We believe your clients and customers are interested in that too.

Even if they don't know it.

03/18/2024

Creativity and originality take guts.

So does love.

03/16/2024

League of extraordinary gentlemen? 🙂

We're so grateful to get to work with some pretty incredible people and organizations.

Thank you, Chris.

You make us better. ❤️

03/01/2024

Yeah, well, that's what social media used to be before the "advertisers" took over.

Still works, by the way. 😉

02/28/2024

We know. It's sounds like a late-night information sales pitch ("Slap Chop," anyone?).

But it's true.

You don't have time to be creating posts for your social media every day. You've got a business to run.

With just a little bit of know-how and a wee amount of prep, you can EASILY create enough content for relatable, genuine and engaging social media posts for 90 days or more. Within a half-day.

Comment "Half Day" or send us a DM if you'd like us to send you a note sharing how.

02/26/2024

Sing it, Simon.

02/24/2024

People at concerts these days. 😅

02/23/2024

Well, yeah. We can.

But is that what people are on social media for?

We're not saying "don't advertise."

We're saying, "In addition to - and in between - your advertisements, give people a relatable reason why they might actually care to engage with your feed."

And it's SO much simpler than you may think.

People still relate to people.

They don't form relationships with gimmicks and trends.

People relate to people.

Holler at us if you'd like our help.

02/21/2024

See how familiar this sounds.

You're the owner, manager, representative or creator of a business, association, community group or creative project.

You feel as if you could be using social media to "get the word out" and connect with ideal clients and more effectively.

But you don't know how.

You're unsure about what to say (post) or the "best" way to say it.

It could be that you're feeling unclear on which channels to use (the number of choices feels overwhelming), how often you need to post or how to make social media actually make sense for a small-to-midsize business.

You've been led to believe you need to gain a ton of new "followers," or that you'll have to be on top of the latest trends. Perhaps you feel like you'll have to know how to "go viral," hack the algorithm, become an "influencer," document your entire life and/or spend a lot of extra money that you just don't have.

You think you may want to use social media to help you grow ... but you're frustrated. You aren't sure where to start or what to do next.

If that's you, this'll help:

At last ... the foolproof solution you've been looking for.

02/19/2024

Happy Family Day. ❤️

02/17/2024

Happy Family Day weekend! 😊

For most small-to-midsize businesses operating inside a certain geographic area, going "viral" with a social media post might feel good, but it probably shouldn't be the primary goal.

Start with consistency and clarity of message. Try communicating in a way your ideal clients and customers might relate to and care about (hint: this means you've got to think your message through from THEIR perspective).

Vanity metrics shouldn't be the goal.

Growing your business should be.

Sorry, but that takes work. With social media or without.
