The social media are constantly and quickly evolving. Three years ago, almost nobody had even heard of Facebook, and MySpace was all the rage. Now, businesses are scrambling to figure out the best way to utilize Facebook Pages their customer base. Twitter, which has only been in existence since 2006, now handles over 27 million tweets per day!

Meanwhile, in December 2009, Google introduced a new service called SideWiki, which promises to totally change the way that people interact with web pages.  At the same time, increasing numbers of people are exploring up-and-coming social media services like Tumblr, FriendFeed and StumbleUpon (have you even heard of these yet?!).

How does the average business keep up with trends that change this quickly?

That's where Alternative Marketing Connections can help. We live, breathe, and eat social media. It is our job to stay on top of the trends, new services, and new techniques to maximize your exposure and effectiveness through the social media. We are constantly evolving with the social media, learning new and better techniques for establishing a professional and consistent presence.

Our Approach

For the social media to be effective for business use, it is essential to "keep it real."  That is why our philosophy for social media management is to keep our clients directly involved in their social media presence.

We see the combination of different social media and how they interact with your business as a "social stream." We will set up and configure this social stream for you, and then augment the content. In other words, your business still has access and can update your social stream -- we just make it better.

What We Are NOT...

Alternative Marketing Connections is not a graphic design firm or an ad agency. In fact, we love to work with your existing creative professionals. Our specialty is building your online presence through the social media ad through social media friendly websites. We are happy to work with your existing creative team whether it is outsourced or in-house.
