Social Media – Share Ideas, Content, and Build Networks!
What do I mean by being consistent in your marketing?
Being present is one of the most important aspects of a successful relationship – whether that be personal, business, or even social media. Presence is part of being consistent. Being consistent is key to successful marketing. Why? Consistency builds trust, reinforces your brand identity, and increases recognition.
This is important to remember: “Social media is you doing things and people telling you if it’s awesome or not. Social media is not you telling people that what you’re doing is awesome. That’s marketing.” (LukeW)
Social media isn’t a nice-to-have; it’s a must-have. Without social media, your brand will be missing one of the pillars of SEO (hint: it’s not just all about your website). You’ll also be losing valuable insight into potential customer behaviors and desires.
Through the relationships built online, actual business follows. Why? Because it’s where people are. Best of all, Social Media is free. The platforms are free, your words are free. Reach out and connect with someone!

We Are All Experts
As a lecturer, consultant and networker, Warren teaches online marketing to the people who are furthest away from digital technology: senior citizens. A target group-oriented approach is indispensable. At CBM, he passes on his know-how and his wealth of experience to participants.
Learning Social Success
We hear the terms „online community“ and „social networks“ quite often. The temptation is to think these are so much different than any other community or ways of socialising. They certainly seem to have morphed into something different. The underlying rules of social interaction, however, haven’t.
eCommerce is Not an Online Shop
An important characteristic of eCommerce is that it is not really a distinct sector. When we talk about eCommerce, the concept that usually comes to mind is of course online shopping. eCommerce means enabling all of an organisation’s operations. It is not enough to just set up an online shop.
