Connie Bensen

Social networks have changed the face of marketing. They provide a new channel in which to connect with prospects. Consumers are seeking information and opinions. Many organizations are realizing that social networks offer opportunities to increase their marketing & sales efforts in both business to customer (B2C) and business to business (B2B) efforts.

In my second whitepaper in the Social Media ROI Series I discuss seven ways that social media monitoring can be used for lead generation. I cover the following areas:

  • Identify people expressing a need for your product/service
  • Create a Customer Profile
  • Reduce cold calling
  • Lower acquisition costs
  • Increase revenue due to cross selling and upselling
  • Reduce marketing costs and spend on Google Adwords
  • Align sales efforts with marketing

All of the white papers in the series are can be found here.
