Questions To Ask Social Media Companies In Phoenix Before Hiring Them

By Ronald Blanchard


Online presence is no longer a luxury for businesses. Social media companies in Phoenix that want to do marketing or manage your presence must display knowledge as well as offer tangible results. Such companies are fond of using big words that mean nothing if your financial fortunes do not improve. To avoid being bamboozled into signing for terms you do not understand, what should you demand of the marketers?

Understanding of your business goals. The company must understand what your company is all about. They should show how the strategies or activities they are proposing will contribute towards the ultimate success of your company. The proposals and activities must show how brand recognition, market penetration, customer engagement, etc will be achieved.

What is to be achieved through this platform? It is objectives that provide a motivation to engage in any activity. An example of achievements out of engagement is where being online increases your sales volume by a stipulated percentage. Such goals or objectives must be specific, achievable, relevant, timed and measurable. With set objectives, you have a reason to open an account, employ administrators or managers, etc. Such managers will, for example, be given a target to meet.

Identify target audience online. Failure in online engagements comes from lack of understanding of the persons to be involved. Your proposal must clearly define who the target is. This description needs to capture such specific aspects as their daily challenges, motivations, dislikes, likes, occupation, age, interests, income levels, etc. By describing the person in this manner, it will be easier to develop target content. You might also need to differentiate whether the person is urban or rural bred.

What is my competition doing? The purpose of understanding what your competition does is to inform your activity. The successful or working tactics by your competition can be integrated into your plan. The bidding company should provide a strategy to be used to match and counter your competition and therefore appear top. Analysis on competition is mainly meant to keep you on top of the game.

What strategy will be used in handling content? There is a direct relationship between being online and producing quality content. It will be a waste of time and resources to have a cosmetic online presence. Content plays a crucial role in converting potential clients. The issues to be addressed regarding content are its type, time the content is posted or shared and how often this happens.

What is your budget and what resources are required? The budget is usually determined by the goals and objectives of online presence. Since the presence is not cosmetic, it must deliver real fruits. Identify priority tactics that are cost effective yet deliver better results. Resources should include gadgets, personnel, time and software requirements, among others. If special skills for your employee are needed, develop a training and assimilation plan.

Always demand measurement tools to be used in evaluating the results. Since your goals are time bound, regular evaluation should be conducted with the aim of modifying the strategy or boosting it. Experienced professionals have a better understanding of the online platform. Engage them to develop a customized plan for you.
