@drintelmann Yep, Columbus as of this weekend.
Using Google Apps for your org? You just got Google Groups, now part of the Apps suite - http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2009... (h/t @jakrose)
@terrybean 11 pt Comic Sans ...it's the only way to go.
@treypennington No problem ... great points that communicators need to know!
@terrybean No, you just need to make the text multi-color. And maybe smaller ... fit more words on the page that way.
Your business, now on Google Earth. > RT @mashable: Place Pages Bring Rich Info to Google Earth - http://mashable.com/2009...
@drintelmann Thanks! How have you been? I'm in C-bus this weekend ... need to plan a trip to T-town soon!
RT @treypennington: Okay, NOW Facebook Pages are worth investing in for your small business (or big one) http://mashable.com/2009...
@thepropertydiva Varies by market. You may want to ping @rentsentinel.
Q6: People are shopping, they're in your store. Use this time to get your social media presence in front of them. #smbiz
Q6: Not unique, but keep your message consistent across your social media profiles #smbiz
Q5: If your office is slow, use the time to create content. Write blog posts, use video to interview staff. Build your presence. #smbiz
@SternalMrktg Remember that 90% of WOM interactions are offline. Try pushing some of those interactions online. #smbiz
@firebelly I like the idea of Easter eggs on a site. Give people a fun surprise/reward if they explore different parts of your site. #smbiz
Q4: Make sure your message is still consistent across your web presence. (Website, Twitter background, Facebook page, etc.) #smbiz
@kathy_moore All great points from @ducttape. Location is getting big fast, especially considering Google's announcements this week. #smbiz
Q4: Look for ways to get your brand in front of on-the-go shoppers. Could you pull together the best local deals on @foursquare? #smbiz
@firebelly Awesome idea. I like a lot of the mobile clubs I'm seeing. Planet Smoothie is a good example locally. #smbiz
Q5: Your competitors are probably taking it slow, too. Use this time to stay in front of your clients. (Don't forget offline, too!) #smbiz
Q6: Be an information hub for your audience. Reach out to them. What can you do to help them stay sane this month? #smbiz
Q5: Understand your clients' schedule. Many professional businesses are slow during the holidays, so you need to catch them now. #smbiz
@OlindaServices Thanks for joining the conversation ... let me know if you have any other questions! #smbiz
@smbiz Thanks again for having me on the chat tonight! Happy holidays! #smbiz
Q5: Holiday parties mean networking. Extend that online by making connections on LinkedIn, Plaxo, etc. #smbiz
@SternalMrktg You too, and send my best to @SternalPR. #smbiz
Q6: Try doing things like putting links to your social media sites on the bottom of receipts. #smbiz
Q4: It may be a themed message, but you still should maintain your brand identity (colors, text treatments, etc.). #smbiz
@SternalMrktg Completely agree. It's like the lights on the Griswold's house - so many lights, you forget what the house looks like. #smbiz
@OlindaServices Sure, that's essentially what WebEx does for their clients to drive event registrations. #smbiz
End the year on an upswing! Join me on #smbiz at 8 pm ET to discuss online marketing strategies for the holiday season.
