The current era is all about the "likes", "emojis", "comments", "followers", "tagging", etc. However, what will happen if the car rental is also linked up with the grand social media platform? There is no doubt that the car rental services are roaring in the present technological sphere in the form of functional apps and software.

So, if you include the social media in your car leasing business, it will rock the world.

Plus, the customers will also get the perks from this step. They will have the straightforward and easier access to your service and interesting deals also. So, they incline more towards your service. In short, the car rental and social media act as a two-way lane. 

Connecting Social Media and Car Hiring Services... 

It is certainly not the age that restricts an individual to utilize rental services, but, actually, it is the lack of amenities associated with the hiring services. It is actually the eminence of Facebook, Twitter, etc. that every automobile manufacturer and car rental companies mold towards adding the social media in their business schemas.

How to Use Social Media to Make Your Event Even More Social

How to Use Social Media to Make Your Event Even More Social - Mumbai, India

Raul Harman - Guest Author Post - Social Media Marketing & Event Promotion Mumbai, India

Event management is now completely automated, at least when it comes to event promotion in which social networks have a huge role. In this article we tried to sum up all the benefits social networks provide to event managers and to discover new ways in which websites like: Facebook, Instagram and Twitter can be used for increasing event attendances and ensuring that every attendee goes home satisfied. 

What are the main goals for using social networks in event management?

Huge popularity of social networks, made event managers to quickly recognize their potential. These are the main goals for using social media in event management:

  • Event awareness- Many people use different social networks for planning their day and receiving information about nearby events. That’s why social media is the main tool organizers use for popularizing their events.
  • Brand awareness- Most commercial events are used for brand promotion. Social networks offer great possibilities for brand advertising, especially after networks like Facebook, Twitter and Instagram included smart ad platforms into their business model. Of course when using social networks for this purpose, organizers should focus on event itself, without flooding attendees with too many commercial offers.
  • Creating new communication channels- Event pages created for popularizing certain events, can later be used as channels for personal and commercial communication. 

Which social media websites you should use?

Statistics say that Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn are the most commonly used social networks in event-management. Facebook is by far the most popular social media channel, and it leads with 78%, when it comes to usage for purposes of event-management. It can be used for both business and leisure events. 

Twitter is also very popular, and it is mostly used for announcing leisure or business events that will be attended by predominantly young crowd. Twitter comes with a few more aces in its sleeve when it comes to event management. Since it runs in real-time it can also be used as communication channel between event attendees. This can be done by projecting Tweets with event’s hashtag on screen installed on the stage, so all attendees can see them. 

LinkedIn is mainly used for business events, and it can be a great tool for promoting events among company’s employees or people who work in specific niche or job post.

Use of social media in different event stages

Although most people think that social media is only used for pre-event promotion, these websites can be used effectively in various event stages.
  • Pre-event- event promotion is the main purpose of pre-event social media use. For conducting an effective promotion, managers should determine their targeted audience. This is very important for maximizing promotion results, because various social media ad platforms offer advanced targeting options. Before they start event promotion, managers should establish their promotional budget, create content they are going to share on event pages, brand their event and determine posting schedule. During promotional period they should post both promotional and informative content, use hashtags, ask their followers to share event information and enable them to reserve tickets. Tickets can be reserved by messaging or on organizer’s website by using a WordPress event ticketing plugin.
  • During the event- Social networks can be very useful during the event. They can be used for making check-ins, streaming and making contact between event attendees. Event managers mainly use Periscope app for streaming, while Twitter is used for establishing contact between attendees. As we mentioned in previous chapter, event managers often place large screens on which attendees can post their Tweets and comment the event itself.
  • Post-event- After the event various social networks can be used for exchanging ideas and posting event feedback. Many organizers decide to write a blog entry that focuses on the event or to share event photos on Facebook or Instagram. Youtube can also be very useful for pre- and post-event promotion, since this network allows organizers to post commercials and event videos. 
Event organization and promotion with the use of social networks is a two way process, which is one of its main benefits. Social networks allow event organizers to be in constant contact with attendees and key speakers and to answer all of their questions. 

Attendees, on the other hand, can ask questions and give comments before, during and after the event. This traditionally results in higher attendance and less problematic audience, since all attendees come well-informed. Today, when we know all the benefits of using social media for event management, it is hard to imagine how this process was done 20 or 30 years ago. In spite of this, today’s businesses spend less than 20% of their marketing budget on organizing events and only 20% of event managers use social media event monitoring tools. 

Hopefully these percentages will grow in the future, as event managers realize all of the benefits that come with this concept.

Have your enterprise business video being utilized in a truly manner targeting your marketing audience how your products and services would turn out to prove better in their lives.

6. Creating video on the relevant topic of your business: 

Remember what is researched well in advance is generally the one that is considered to be the first point of contact. Then try and perform the video optimization so that your video content ranks successfully when compared to the others.

Sales and the customer service team could easily incorporate business videos in their workflow. As a sales team you might be interested in generating more number of leads or grab the attention of your marketing audience towards your business video. Stream a demo and have your content being shared on social media.  Track down the frequency of your stream say for more example do you want to get more viewers by streaming weekly, bi – weekly, tailor and check what seems to work out the best for you and your team.

8. Talking to the experts of your organization: 

Try and talk to the experts related to your organization in order to understand how many business videos you could make in a year, how you could use them in order to convey the expertise. Reusing openers, closers and graphics would help you maximize the production budget so that you could create more video content.

How an Agency Assist you in Generating a Significant Return on your Marketing Investment?

ROI on your marketing investment | Guest Post Mumbai INDIA
ROI on your marketing investment
Guest Blogging on Social Media Marketing Mumbai INDIA

Are you regularly tracking social media marketing trends?

Are you wondering whether the predictions for 2015 are willing to reach huge revenue?

Social media marketing is a vital part of digital marketing which need constant change. However, most of the time social media marketers feel and make changes. These are the rapid changes that they need to stay up-to-date and to know which can be astounding, and having catch-up to all the hottest social media trends some time which is impossible. 

We all are aware with the bitter fact that it's not easy being social and stay up-to-date with the latest trend always. While out of 100, 92 percent of social media marketers say that marketing is important for their online business, more than half hurdle to measure ROI and efficiently manage multiple social media marketing campaigns.

As per the report of real-time marketing, 36 percent of chief social marketing officers cited creating timely, fresh content as their biggest and crucial challenge in 2014. Perhaps instead of focusing on real time, having an keen focus on right time, brands can eclipse on marketing campaign expectations.

Maybe you've this question- is my business will sound like your business over social media? Sure, setting up a Twitter account or Facebook page is pretty evident. But before you jump into it you should have deep knowledge about it, you’re investing all your hard earned money as well as precious time responding to customer comments, queries and complaints and still you're failing to strategically use these social media channels to achieve your marketing goals, you need a serious discussion about it.
If you're serious about social media marketing, one thing you firstly and essentially need is to partner with a social media marketing agency that offers social advertisement services. But just because you’ve hired an agency to do your marketing doesn’t mean it’s all social smooth sailing. We know managing social media effectively is just like  bite the bullet and that's the reason you hired an agency to manage it but, you also need to go the whole nine yard and search out for something best for your business.

Most small businesses find the consequent onboarding time to be just as challenging, too. The first 2-3 months of working with a social marketing partner are demanding for future success. In actuality all small business need an social management agency marketing partner who better understands both what and how the aspect of yours. Because, then only they can help you to create  the best possible social media marketing operation that can efficiently and costs effectively scale up your marketing efforts. Although, agencies also need small business to understand that even they use most aggressive strategy for their business, the result won't happen overnight. 
Set applicable expectations with your social media marketing partner from the starting by asking these two key questions:

#1: How Long Does it Take to Go Live?

Of all of the concerns to ask, that one may be the most significant.

The final thing your business must do is invest in integrating by having a business that’s likely to invest the following four weeks assembling a social media marketing campaign while you’re paying an arm and a leg for the agency’s quality guidance. Success doesn’t occur overnight. Your present digital marketing group will have to work in lockstep using the agency’s group to run events and adapt to new audiences.

However, if the onboarding process becomes slow and requires longer-than-expected, you’ll get additional costs without any results in the display for this expense.

Worse, there’s a risk for concealed and unforeseen expenses.
If you’re starting a brand new item in six months, for instance, make sure that it’s adequate period for that company you employ to construct a social media advertising campaign along with the product’s start.

As an instant: A Facebook post or YouTube video might play a part in a sale at some point, but a phone call, filling out a form and other steps typically get the credit for moving potential consumers down the funnel. These steps are closer to the conversion. This difficulty giving social media presence any sales credit incite marketers to switch their social media metrics from direct sales to the more formless social media metrics of brand awareness and marketing buzz.

Report study: Web Retailer’s “2015 Social media 500,” research of 500 leading merchants’ use of social networking, discloses that retailers elevated initiatives to construct sociable media viewers (fan figures were up on average 33% on Facebook from 2013 to 2014) are paying down.
In 2014, complete interpersonal business revenue that would be monitored to internet sites struck $3.30 billion, up 26% from 2013’s $2.62 billion, that will be a significant jump. The research additionally unveiled that the general traffic to store sites via internet sites ticked up 7%. These might increases function as the extended-anticipated indications that sociable marketing may ultimately remove?

Key Takeaways: Many social media marketers will remember the early thousands when doubt and wariness surrounded online shopping. When online shopping sales or fashion sales accounted for 10% of all sales, headlines like “Trend or Here to Stay?” and “Can It Last?”   abounded.

#2. What is the Average Payback Time that Clients See Result?

In the wild and wooly world of social media, there are no guarantees of average payback period within that clients see the result. Each and every business can't use same marketing strategy because there's no such guarantees that the same strategy will also translate well to another company. 

The powerful social media marketing agency will not only make fantastic marketing content at scale up to support your online business, but also drive top-line business outcomes like improve customer relationships, brand lift, or more qualified leads. 
ROI can vary based on your marketing’s goals (e.g., generating brand awareness and lead generation). For better observation you can ask to see the examples and reports of other marketing campaigns for businesses with goals similar to your business and discuss the average time period for implementing effective programs and measuring the success.

For how much time did these marketing campaigns run? At what and which point did clients start getting a significant visual in brand awareness and lead generation? How continual was this increase?
By investing as much as 6 hours/week on social media marketing, more than 66% of marketers report huge lead generation benefits towards their brand. A worthwhile social media marketing agency should drive and offer stronger results. Otherwise, what’s the need of paying them?
As an instant: I'm not surprise to say, Facebook is still dominates social media even with extending a trend several years in the making of social reputation. It's the first word in social. Facebook’s recent addition of its trending social media marketing tool and marketing graph search to mobile determine to keep news junkies on the mobile app for longer. The aim of these type of apps are getting advertisers to put up and post video ads for their targeted audiences. It also offer Audience Network, which endorse Facebook ads on mobile apps that aren’t properties by Facebook. 

If an agency analyzes the latest trends and makes their marketing strategy according to it, they can  lower the average payback time of showing fruitful results to the clients.
Report study:

Client information and insight provider Gigya reviews that in Q4 2014, Facebook not just turned the supplier of 61% of sociable log-in, but additionally comprises 72% of e-commerce sociable log-in (also known as identification companies). Facebook’s 61% extends far in front of Google+’s next runner up standing at 22%. Notice the large orange piece below.

And lastly, Pew Study informs us that Facebook’s engagement price significantly surpasses that of every other interpersonal funnel. 60% of its large user-base activates using the website everyday. That quantity elevated 7% from 2013, and beat Instagram’s everyday person quantity of 49% and Pinterest’s 17% completely. These two systems didn't improve their everyday person prices from 2013 to 2014.
Key Takeaways: So far ahead on cellular with the administrative center to carry on its routine of frequently providing fresh cellular functions, Facebook reduces additional mobile social media systems. Its free functions create users lifestyles thus easier that they’re pleased to reveal all their buying intent, purchase history, demographics and much more.

What this means is marketers might find Facebook as supplying the absolute most specific and useful market, an influx of keen customers.

Bottom Line

Marketing with social media is as much an art as it is a marketing science. Even the most creative, experienced and innovative agency can't guarantee all its social media marketing campaigns will be a huge success – and that's fine. That said, you don't want to spend your valuable funds while hiring an agency whose social media marketing approach doesn’t maze with yours.
Doing your homework before hiring any agency will ensure your expectations are coordinate with what your social media marketing agency actually offers. Are they follow the latest trends and strategy before serving ROI in your resulting plate?
