Social Media

Social Media can connect brands to consumers, business to each other, and of course people to people. If your company is interested in social media or you’re here because you’ve heard it mentioned, seen people write about it, or you’re wanting to know more you probably have some questions like:

  • What is social media?
  • Why is everyone getting so excited about it?
  • How do you create a social media strategy?
  • Can it really create better relationships with my customers?
  • How do I integrate it into my current marketing mix?

As a social media consultant (based in Los Angeles, CA) I offer a variety of services to fit your need. Whether it’s helping your company develop a strategy to fit your goals or training and workshops for employees and execs I can create a package just for you and your needs.

I’ve been deeply involved in the marketing and communication applications of social media since early 2006, and have worked with a wide variety of clients including large fortune 500 companies like Symantec.

The first hour of consulting is always free and for all projects, presentations, and workshops within 30 miles of Monrovia, CA there is no travel charge. Distances greater than 30 miles will have some travel fees associate. Of course anything done online or via phone will not be subject to travel fees. If you have any questions please email me.

Through carefully planned and monitored internet marketing strategies your message can be targeted and spread to the people you’re trying to reach. Whether you need someone to create the strategies and run the campaigns or need a consultant with a fresh pair of eyes to help optimize your current strategies or campaigns I can help.

Symantec

For  Symantec I worked with and managed the social media and integrated activities for several of the incubator projects. The goals were varied as were the strategies. Though it had the backing of a large company, the environment was that of a startup with small budgets, limited staff, and intense goals to prove viability.

“Josh has an indepth understanding of the social media market and helped us to develop a great strategy to penetrate the market. His knowledge and skill made him a great member of the team. He helped us to bring a new idea in cloud computing to market and lead the social marketing and media effort for Symantec.”

Created a multi phase strategy covering this multi-faceted company. Details are not available per the company’s wishes, but I was able to examine the existing ideas, build plans for improving areas of customer interaction, and advised on future plans.
