Make a Name for Your Company Out of Thin Air - Is it Possible with Social Media?

July 5, 2010 - PRLog -- Within three days after launching the ebook, "uSocial.com - An Insider's Guide. The ultimate set of utilities for creating a HUGE following in the top two social networks," more than 3100 people flocked to their social media accounts on Twitter @usocial_com and http://www.facebook.com/usocial.

Not bad for a company that almost instantly made a name for itself out of thin air.

The uSocial.com ebook focuses on ways that businesses can tap into the top two social networking sites and provides a direct approach to getting a mass following and a word in edgewise. The ebook packs a punch in less than 50 pages, offering readers a defined set of utilities that are combined into a daily schedule requiring only 15-30 minutes a day. It seems almost too easy, yet the proof is right there on uSocial.com’s Facebook and Twitter for all to see.

Webmasters.com, the US-based web hosting giant, published the uSocial.com ebook. Leann Schmidt, Webmasters.com VP, said, "When the authors first approached us, we told them we'd need to see proof before we'd sponsor them. In about a month's time, I saw their techniques draw in 18,000 followers on company accounts. They proved that it works for any business name, not just type-in traffic or well branded businesses."

Many business owners are actively turning to social media as a primary marketing resource, and for good reason. Facebook is now catering to over 500 million users, and Twitter now has 190 million users, with over 65 million tweets going out daily.

Book excerpt:
"Social media costs little to nothing as it permeates and gains momentum when friends share links with each other, almost innocently endorsing your business by proudly wearing your business link on their own pages. No comments, no frills, just a, 'Hey everyone, I LIKE this!'

People can follow you and become your your fan. In turn, you can market directly to them. "
