It’s Friday again, and time for the 3Ships team to debate another social media topic. Last week, we looked at corporate social media campaigns, and put forth our opinions about why Starbucks, Taylor Guitars, Vitamin Water and Ticketmaster deserved mention among the best business social media deployments we’ve observed.
Granted, the budgets these multimillion dollar companies can put toward their social media presence makes development of community a little easier. Name brand recognition also helps drive people to the Facebook pages and tweets of the companies we profiled this week.
But how do you make a social media campaign work on a budget? This week, our Friday FaceOff session deals with Small Business social media usage. We’ll be rolling out our choices for the best small business (50 employees or less) social media outreach program throughout the day.
Matt Bales: Naked Pizza
Pat Morrell: DSI Comedy Theater
Pete Wylie: Capital Ford – Raleigh
Caroline Williams: The Republic Bar and Grill
