We have several new initiatives within the site that will help your business but to make the most of the new features we need some information from you!
TAILORED EVENTS AND NEWS
As Theo mentioned at the event we want to start organising other events and workshops throughout the year which will benefit your business. However before we are able to do this we need to understand a little more about your business so that we can tailor what events and information would suit your business.
NEW IMPROVED SEARCH FUNCTIONALITY
We have improved the search functionality on the site and have added a directory which potential customers will use to find your products or services! To make sure that you can be found by potential customers who visit the #SBS Directory can you choose a category from the list below that you think best describes your business:
Business Services
Computers & Internet
Entertainment
Finance & Legal
Home and Garden
Industrial & Commercial
Shopping
Society
Travel & Tourism
OTHER BENEFITS
Along with these benefits the other features that Theo launched at the #SBS Event are as follows:
Improved news and offers functionality on your #SBS profile which can appear on the homepage
#SBS business of the month who will feature on the homepage for the whole month
Ability to discuss posts and news on the site
Badge generator so that your business name can be integrated into the #SBS badge
We tailor packages for each client based on the type of public relations service they require. These range from ad hoc, 400-word projects to more comprehensive scopes of work that include multiple press releases, social media management, ghost-writing services and media consultancy every calendar month.
MY BIO
On 13 May 2013 we set about growing a portfolio of non-competing businesses in the lifting equipment industry, leveraging knowledge and experience that both directors gained over many years in business-to-business trade media. We targeted manufacturers, distributors of equipment and other service providers and also pitched to two trade associations representing companies in the same industry—one in the UK and another in the USA. We have since expanded into construction, manufacturing, retail and other sectors.
MY BUSINESS TIPS
A press release has got to be about something newsworthy.
Demonstrate interest in a new social media account you've followed by engaging with a previous post.
Practice answering the question: What do you do?
A good awards entry should be completed like an exam paper—frequently refer back to the criteria.
Every good business should have a blog. Blogs should be educational, entertaining and non-commercial.
