Create brand value and achieve conversion thru targeted engagement in social media.

Do you know where you stand in social media? Are you engaged? Can you afford not to be?

We want to provide state of the art software to clients that deliver insightful marketing campaigns on the frontier of the online marketing sphere that is Social Media Integration.

THE SOCIAL MEDIA MARKETING COMMAND CENTER With scintillating growth in social media user base as experienced by Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn,

et al in the last couple of years, the landscape of social media has firmly established itself as a

“must” medium for Brands, global and local, to target for brand value creation and customer

acquisition. The intrinsic nature of topic specific conversation in social media proves to be a fertile

ground for targeted publishing at a level no other medium has even been able to achieve in the

history of marketing.

For Brands to capitalize in this new medium, it takes tremendous man power to “sift” through vast volumes

of social media traffic that is “noisy” by nature. Brands at all levels, private or public, global or local, must

first assess their own standings amongst social media users by identifying relevant conversations with

respect to their brands and product spaces. They then have to establish creative and engaging social

media footprints to achieve Fan Base or Follower Base expansion and retention amongst well over 1 billion

users on Facebook and Twitter and other major social networking portals. Ultimately, Brands need to be

able to effectively engage with these relevant users with well crafted marketing campaigns. As such,

Brands need a technology platform and strategic advisory services helping them to monetize this evolving

medium.

SMInetwork™ is the end-to-end social media marketing solution for Brands to achieve this very goal.
