What are your current methods of marketing to your customers? Are you focused on building your credibility with your existing marketing programs? If these methods are not working it may not be for a lack of trying. It is likely that you are not targeting the right audience with the messages you are sending out and this is leading to problems for the company.

Have you taken the time to establish a social media presence for the business? You need to have a social media presence in order to really make an impact. This helps you to get your business name out there in the customer's eyes often and it does really help you to have a new platform to talk to your customers. Social media is not like using Google or other types of marketing in order to get information out there. Social media is completely focused on the customer and on their needs. You have to really understand how it works in order for it to make a difference.

Credibility is something that can take a long time for your company to earn. However with the right type of tools at your side, like social media, you can earn this quickly.

With social media you have instant access to your customers and you do have more access to them than you ever have in the past. Having this type of access can be good and bad because sometimes you will learn things about your company that you really wish you hadn't. There are some companies that learn their customers are upset with them and have been saying a lot of poor things about them online. Other companies find out that there is a lot of information out there but it isn't really information that helps the company.

Credibility is earned when you prove your value to the customers. You need to be able to let the customers know that you have valuable information that they will want and will greatly appreciate. This can take time to get to this point as your customers need to be able to trust you. Start using social media to help you get to this point. YouTube is a great way to get to this point as you can turn to YouTube in order to help you market the company by sending out videos to your customers. With these videos you want to focus on being engaging and informative with them. As you do this, people will begin to respond to them and it will make it easy to start gaining credibility for your business.

Open up your business to your customers in a different way. Start hosting live radio shows on your website and using podcasts and other things. The more access people have to you, the easier it is to find you and to share your information with others. Start making a presence on Facebook and other social media sites. Let people really see that you have a company that cares and one that does have an online presence. The more exposure your customers get to your company, the easier it will be for them to recognize it and send the information out to their friends.

Secure your name in your industry. Make people understand your business and what you are all about. As people learn more about your company, the easier it will be for you to share more information with them and trust that it will get filtered around properly. The information must be timely and it must be credible in order for the customers to actually respond to it.
