Tackle the 800lb. Gorilla!
Are you curious about this phenomenon called social media? Social Media is rapidly becoming a primary method of communication and information sharing. With Facebook reporting more than 200 million active users and Twitter boasting growth from 14 million users to more than 21 million users, social media is clearly here to stay.
With the growing popularity of social media, businesses are also beginning to understand that they can use this new communication tool to benefit them professionally: but how? At first glance social media appears complicated, time consuming, and almost pointless. After all, how can you generate business from posting random material about your life?
With all these questions many business professionals are ignoring the 800lb social media gorilla in the room. They know its there, they know its not going anywhere, but they don’t know what to do with it so they’d rather ignore it than deal with it.
That’s where we come in. At Guerrilla Social Media, we make sense of social media by educating our clients about social networking profiles, blogging and how they work in conjunction with your website to establish your online presence. You are not alone we are hear to guide you! Let the journey begin.

I have used social media for job search, business networking,animal rescue marketing/exposure/fundraising , all with phenomonal success. Once I sat with you and learned the basics I was off and running!The best thing I learned was that its more than just setting it up: its also knowing what then to do with it. YOu helped with both! Thank You! PS Any advice on how to use social media for a homeowners association? Im going to write a column for their newsletter and create their facebook page….

I love the idea of Home Owners Associations and Civic League Associations using social media as a primary source of sharing information! First of all, its free and easily accessible. It’s permission based so people have the freedom to get informed and involved voluntarily. Newsletter type information can be shared in discussion format which creates an immediate buzz. It also works great for neighborhood watch and block security programs. Its not easy to access crime reports but having the ability of all users to make reports and observations through watch commanders and leaders is an amazing communication asset.
