FACT: Businesses Need
Social & Community Managers
MONETIZING SOCIAL MEDIA
You and your business are being talked about on social media right now.
Whether its a Facebook post, a tweet on Twitter or a photo on Instagram
your prospects and customers have changed the way they voice criticism and praise.
Theyve also changed they way they find and consume information
and theyve even changed the way they buy too.
Successful businesses must adapt their marketing to these changes.
If youre here, you already know that having a social media strategy is an important aspect of any digital marketing strategy.
But, if youre like most businesses, youre not doing it as well as you know you should be.
Your business needs to have plans and processes in place in order to:
- Listen to what your folks are saying about you on social media so you can monitor and respond to customer service and reputation management issues
- Influence them in a positive way, by establishing authority, often through the distribution and sharing of valuable content
- Network and associate with authoritative and influential individuals and brands
- Sell them your products and services, without coming across as sleazy or pushy.
In other words, good social media management helps to control the conversation about your business, leading to positive customer experiences, increased authority and ultimately more leads and sales.
So that’s why businesses need Social and Community Managers.
There’s just one problem: Most so-called social media managers don’t know what they’re doing.
Thats where you come in.
As a Certified Social & Community Manager, youll learn to assess your business goals and employ sound and measurable social media marketing practices to meet those goals.
More specifically, in this master class, you’ll learn:
- The Social Success Cycle framework that gives you instant clarity on the 4 categories of social media marketing activities (and the category every business should begin with).
- How to create your Customer Avatar in order to architect a social media strategy that attracts leads and buyers (our simple Customer Avatar Worksheet will show you how to build your avatar).

- The Feedback Loop process that exponentially increases the impact of social media marketing on product/service development, customer service and content creation.
- The 5 keyword categories that matter when monitoring the web for customer service and reputation issues (Listen for these keywords and youll immediately join the social conversation about your brand).

- The simple 3-Step Social Media Customer Service Plan to employ when dealing with angry customers on public social channels.
- 4 methods to growing connections on any social channel (look out for the Indoctrination and Bouncing processes).

- The 6-Step socialization process youll apply to every new piece of content you create (this will maximize your social media exposure).
- How to defeat the Social Fire Hose (and create social media updates that get noticed in the sea of social status updates).

they are also able to track, measure and monetize your social media efforts.
If you’re interested in becoming a Certified Social & Community Manager, then I have one question for you
Are You A “Doer”…or Just a “Talker?”
Let’s face it: Marketing experts are a dime a dozen.
So how do you separate those who “walk the talk” from the ones who merely…
…talk?
That’s the problem!
And at DigitalMarketer, it was our problem, too. You see, we don’t just teach marketing best practices, we actually DO MARKETING for businesses that we ACTUALLY OWN.
We aren’t researchers. We aren’t journalists.
We’re business owners running companies (both online and offline) in B2B and B2C markets selling everything from cosmetics to camping equipment to industrial water filters and everything in-between.
In other words: WE ACTUALLY DO THIS STUFF…
…so we know how hard it is to find truly skilled people who know what they’re talking about.
And that’s why we created the “Social & Community Mastery” course and certification.
We built this certification to train our own team members, but in the spirit of “open sourcing” our business (which is what DigitalMarketer is all about) we’re now making this certification and training available to the world.
In short, we’re making it available to YOU…
