Advertising and marketing have always been a challenge, it doesn’t matter what time in history you’re talking about. The thing is, we have a bad habit of clinging rather desperately to old ways even in the face of major social and cultural change. This is the case with advertising and marketing and the technologies utilized for them. See, most advertisers and marketers still consider certain spots for television advertising to be the holy Grail. Especially amidst certain sports events across the world. Granted, that is the one space where television marketing is still particularly valuable, but 10 years from now, the television aspect of that will be completely gone.

Before I explain why social media marketing in Toms River and social media marketing in Wall are so important, I need to point out why older traditional marketing and advertising methods need to be pretty much abandoned entirely. Even if they are marginally profitable at the moment, breaking into them is a waste of your time.

Let’s start with the most absolutely obsolete of these, advertisements in periodicals like newspapers and magazines. While magazines and newspapers are still printed and so, they are to a rapidly-aging group of demographics that precious few things are marketable to at this point. Basically, the very old generations still bother to buy newspapers or magazines, with the exception of things like comic books, but very few things really work for marketing in that particular medium.

Along with this, radio is also a dying thing, with more and more people simply using their mobile Internet connection to listen to streams, podcasts and the like, traditional radio being rapidly abandoned. It is so rife with advertising, and so bland with only popular, lowest common denominator programming that is falling on deaf ears.

Television is not far behind for similar reasons, services being the future, once I figure out there cross-platform marketing, and the ecosystem stabilizes and shrinks a little.

Why specifically social media marketing? Well, it isn’t the end-all of marketing methods for the future, it is one of a handful of tools that will dominate marketing for the rest of time. Social media marketing is really intended to drive conversion, but rather retention as well as a way to reach out to existing customers for deals, new products and just to have a general parlay with consumers.

People interested in your product or service are going to be following you on social media, so this is the best place to engage with those existing people. A cliché a prime example is the sort of cheeky repartee established by Wendy’s, but they are far from the only example.

However, even if you only have a tiny existing user base due to being a startup, it’s not too early to be looking into someone who can handle effective social media marketing in Wall or social media marketing in Toms River, because it is not as easy as you probably think, and you need to have a capable service on hand to help you do this right!
