Does Construction
Need Social Media?
      Leslie Poston
Itā€™s More That Social Media Needs You
        (or at least the people there do)
What is it?
Social Media is to the business today
What Lotus was to the business years ago


       Just another tool to master
The Tools Arenā€™t New.
    Just Different.
Your Social Tool Box

                     Website ā€¢
                    Email List ā€¢
        Shareable Newsletter ā€¢
          Blog or News Feed ā€¢
             Social Platforms ā€¢
                 SEO & SMO ā€¢
Why do I need it?
Making Online Sales
Getting Sales Leads
Increasing Brand Awareness
Educating and Informing Customers
Potential Customer Research
Reaching New Demographics
Gathering Competitive Intelligence
On The Spot Project Updates
Tracking Employees
Helping Find & Hire New Help
Being A News Source
Gaining Support For Your Cause
How can it hurt me?
not listening & responding can lead to brand damage

careless job site postings can lead to regulatory issues

lack of a policy can lead to issues with unhappy employees

but... not being online at all makes it harder for people to
ļ¬nd and hire you in this social age and harder to do
damage control when needed
How can it help me?

Be Where The Customer Can Find You
             (The New Yellow Pages)

           Network With Your Peers

  Showcase Your Industry Knowledge

                Show Your Portfolio
Can it increase my sales?
By 2020, 84% of marketers agree that building customer trust will become
marketingā€™s primary objective, and 82% agree that collaboration with
customers will prevail over marketing.

  27. NOTE: If you're passing admin rights off to this account from another account (like your personal one), there are a few more steps. You should remove the old account from the page's admin list, and then add the new account. You can set up a dummy business in steps 1-6 if the page already exists and you're just transferring ownership. Just be sure to delete your fake business when you're done.\nTo transfer ownership to the new account, first log out of it and into the old one. Go into the settings of the page you administer and go to "Manage Admins." Enter the email address of the account you just set up and hit return, which will add the new account as an admin.\nOnce your new, profile-less account is set up as an admin for your brand's page, you'll be able to remove any unwanted admins. This also makes it easier to manage employee turnover moving forward.\n\n
