Starting a blog is a good start, but it takes time to build traffic and prominence.
Here’s an energy friendly way to approach your marketing: repurpose your content by taking the same information, reshaping it and using it over and over again in different places online. As far as social media ideas go, here are three mini-marketing strategies to help you get started.
Blogging Mini-Marketing Strategy
- plan – design, content and editorial for at least six months out
- comment – set up Google alerts for your keywords and comment when yours gets mentioned

- contests – give away coupons or products
- conferences – meet the moms who write about your products
Facebook Mini-Marketing Strategy
- determine your value
- set up a company page
- search for partners
- invite people to become fans
- keep your presence lively and interactive
Twitter Mini-Marketing Strategy
- listen and track conversations with twitter search
