Social Media Tools

Social Media is a great way to share your insights, reach new people and build your brand. It’s a brilliant marketing tool that so many companies fail to make the most of. Putting social media on the back-burner is an easy mistake to make, mostly because it’s so time consuming but luckily there are some social media tools out there that will save you a lot of time.

Why use social media tools?

Time saving – Busy companies don’t always have time to stop every hour to post something enlightening on social media, but you can schedule posts at spaced out intervals, all in one go. So your daily social media activity could be over within the hour.

Better planning – Scheduling posts also encourages you to really focus and think about what you’re sharing. Is it useful, is it sharable, does it make you look good as a company? These are all useful questions to take on board and ask yourself.

Testing and tracking – Testing and tracking what works and gets you great results will always work to your advantage. Luckily there are tonnes of tools that will help you to keep track of your stats.

Additional blog plugins – Plugins are genius inventions. They range from simple comment boxes to bespoke headers and footers on your website (that change depending on who is on your website) and they can improve your SEO or give you advice with each new post.

Alerts and notifications – Checking all social media platforms is very time consuming. There are tools out there that send all of your notifications to you in one handy place, so you don’t have to run around the internet to reply to everybody.

Liam's knowledge and expertise in the field of Internet Marketing, Google Search Engine Optimisation, Google Adwords and Social Media is evident for everyone to see. We invited Liam to discuss the possibility of including SEO within our current website update. He spent a lot of time understanding our business and the products and services we provide and went away to produce a proposal. His attention to detail and commitment to offer the highest level of service meant that Liam spent several days researching the opportunities for Allen Signs. The proposal he provided was excellent, clearly explaining the research he had undertaken with accurate figures of potential search details. With such a comprehensive proposal it was decided to hire the services of Liam and Zaddle Internet Marketing. Since we have worked together on the project Liam has shown that his undoubted ability to produce is matched by a very friendly and personal service, often going above and beyond to help with this project and others.

I've known Liam now for a few years and its clear he enjoys his work and has a very deep understanding of his subject matter. I've had the pleasure of attending several of Liam's courses as well as seeing his hard work put to good use on several websites and Google AdWord campaigns.

I recently attended one of Liam's training courses on how to get the best from LinkedIn for business. It was a most informative yet enjoyable morning and I am still not sure how Liam managed to pack so much in to half a day. The pace was just right - lively but totally inclusive - with all the verbal content being backed up by an easy to follow takeaway guide for later use. I look forward to growing my LinkedIn network with all my new knowledge and would thoroughly recommend the course to everyone who is (or wants to be) on LinkedIn.

We have known Liam since 2009 and his knowledge and guidance with respect to Internet Marketing and the use of Google is second to none. In addition, the depth of research and detail that he employs to give the best results and advice are usually not reflected in the costs associated with this expanding business area. We would have no hesitation in recommending Liam and Zaddles knowledge and services to anyone serious about improving their business sales and exposure through an Internet presence

I had the pleasure of attending a Business Club Lincolnshire meeting where Liam was the guest speaker. The subject of the presentation was "Generating Business Through LinkedIn". Liam clearly demonstrated his passion for the subject and his in-depth knowledge of Social Media as a business tool. Liam was very keen to share that knowledge with the group and was very open and helpful when questions were raised. Liam's presentation was very professional and I would not hesitate to recommend him if you are looking for advice or assistance with Social Media for your business.
