Kash – Good to hear from you.

Social media marketing, just like other marketing mediums you will always have a risk of low or negative returns. The advantage is however, just as we set up with your website and business, the results are trackable. The advantage is cost of entry or cost of engagement, this is considerably lower when compared to other mediums like TV, print and radio.

For the mum and dad business, yes the time/cost would be worth the return. It may take some time and it does take effort but the returns will be worth it. A great book to read on social media marketing is by The Wine Guy, AKA Gary Vaynerchuk. He really is an inspiration to what is possible, results above points 2 -5.

Hey Brad – long time no chat!

What do you think the success rate is of social media marketing campaigns? Obviously the examples in the video are from pretty well know and large businesses, for the small business owner, say the mum and dad business would the time/cost be worth the return?
