General & Administra=ve Service Clients
Market SNP Via Social Media
Social Media is changing the way business func@ons rela@ve to customer goods and services. Outbound marke@ng is becoming obsolete and inbound marke@ng has taken it’s place. The world is becoming a socialmarket. Informa@on is brought to the consumer via social connec@ons, this includes informa@on about products and services as well as news and other informa@on.
SNP provides the setup and general marke@ng guidance to the individual service provider. SNP provides a low cost, nuts and bolts mechanism for those who correctly focus on their business and need to outsource the set up of this new type of marke@ng for their business.
