The Best Social Media Marketing Agency in Atlanta
If You’re a Startup or Small Business, Social Media Marketing Is Essential for Growing Your Business
Contents
It's no longer enough for a business to own their own media. They also need to participate in shared media. Indeed, every business needs to be on social media and have profiles on third-party review sites and Q/A sites, but this is especially true for startups and small businesses. If your business isn't running social media campaigns, how will customers who aren't searching for your product and service find you? If blog posts aren't promoted on social media, they are likely to die on the vine. Social media can help your business be discovered by your target audiences and can boost all of your content marketing efforts.
So many companies fall into the trap of believing that Social Media Marketing is reserved for the large established companies, who have more resources and budget and assume that social media is a “luxury” they can put off until later. But this is the wrong way to approach it. Social Media Marketing is most effective when a small business opens its doors or a startup is just launching. And today’s online users not only expect to be able to engage with their favorite brands or companies online but also expect them to be responsive and available when and where they need them. Whether you're in B2C or B2B, Social Media Marketing not only allows young businesses to interact and engage with customers and prospects but also to develop a strong community of fans that will develop into loyal customers. Moreover, if you want your website and content to be found, it is now essential to share it on social media to rank in Search.

Because LinkedIn enables companies to market their services and products to a professional audience, it’s arguably the most effective social media channel for companies focusing on B2B (business-to-business).

Twitter Social Media Marketing
Businesses often don’t think of Twitter as a place to market to their audience. But that’s a mistake. Given that Twitter’s primary user base is made up of reporters and bloggers, Twitter represents a huge opportunity for businesses not only to develop leads and sales, but also to launch products or services or communicate important announcements about your business.
Verge’s founder cut her teeth on public relations and media communications, making Twitter one of our core competencies. Whereas many agencies claim to be Twitter-literate, most really don’t understand this unique social media channel and how to leverage it to build and grow a business.
Verge can help your business set up their Twitter profile, create, schedule and publish mission-critical posts, and also create and manage paid advertising campaigns. However, we can also go one step further and connect you with important media and influencers on Twitter that can help you get your business’s story out and generate brand awareness for your business.

It’s no secret that if your business is B2C (Business-to-Consumer), Pinterest is essential for your business. But did you know that Pinterest is rapidly becoming an effective platform for B2B businesses? Whether you sell fashion to women or cloud software to executives, Pinterest can be a game changer when it comes to taking your social media marketing strategy to the next level. One of the reasons it’s so effective, especially for B2B, is that your content and advertising has much lower competition on Pinterest. This means you get more eyeballs on your content and campaigns, which translates into more leads and ultimately sales.
