Dell Archives - Social Email Marketing

In today’s market, people are creative in avoiding all the traditional marketing schemes. They simply search for keywords and find what they are looking for more specifically. As I wrote before, from ‘push’ to ‘pull’. In other words, today’s society is more to the point.

If you are trying to maximize the return on investment (ROI) of your generated leads, you may want to try a few key concepts that I found in a white paper from Alterian.

Building effective organic search engine optimization (SEO), will allow you to “be found” by (potential) customers. The social networking tools out on the market provide huge user bases and social media monitoring helps with the interaction to those bases.

You probably know that I have been saying that email marketing, social media marketing and every other form of marketing you can imagine should be a part of an encompassing marketing strategy, enabling you to see the big picture (and the overall ROI), instead of focusing on the channels and media themselves.

Recently, I interviewed Bart De Waele. He’s a Belgian social media expert so you might have never heard about him before. However, his social media marketing and online reputation management company (one of his many ventures) is doing quite well.

I asked Bart to talk a bit about his views on social media marketing.

For starters, I asked Bart what, according to him, the different steps are that should be taken in a social media marketing campaign.
