I asked Brian what's the most significant social media avenue for the business owners especially contractors

Brian's answer was you got find out specifically where your client is in which media.

So if you're doing consumer contracting more than likely your clients going to be on Facebook if you're doing commercial contracting more than likely your customer or potential customer is going to be on LinkedIn and other media.

So at one of Brian's speaking engagements was for Pella windows.

Of course putting  on a talk about  social media  in front of a good amount of contractors who basically said  we don't want to know nothing about what you ate for breakfast are you walk your dog just not interested in social media or face book.

So at the end of his talk  he basically said  I if I could give all you guys a bonus who would like to know where you can find women homeowners who makes in excess of $100,000 a year and have discretionary income  that are going to be remodeling   so they  can sell their homes  or just make them nicer. . Of course everyone wanted to know

Everyone raise their hand his answer was they are on face  book and can be targeted  on Facebook

People are spending more time on her mobile phones researching things

And truthfully people don't trust people who advertise which is kind of strange to begin with why went over they are looking for people's businesses who have tremendous amount of reviews that people of giving them that seems to be the measuring stick.

You got to play on the stage where people are spending their time looking for you.

Quick tip from Brian when you get done with your whatever you doing do a quick video testimonial. And use it to its full est advantage.

Posted on your website posted on Facebook transcribe it put it into your testimonies on your webpage. Take that same transcription and send it to your customer and ask them if they would cut and paste it into your Google reviews and offer them a thank you.
