Social media and non-traditional marketing to supplement and enhance your marketing plan can be the best way to increase your return on investment. However, do you really have time to tweet, post, blog, fan, follow, or even figure out what all of these things mean? Furthermore, do you have time to commit to actually doing these things well? Shouldn’t you be spending more time designing? After watching many design firms use our Social Media Launchpad to get their firms set up on Twitter, Facebook, Ava Living, LinkedIn, and blogging, and then not have the time to properly tend to those social media tools, Gibson Design Management has launched its Online Community Co-Pilot program.

Your Co-Pilot is experienced and knowledgeable; she will help you not only navigate the social media world but will also work to fly your business to an even higher level.

• Navigation plans: Your Co-Pilot will lead twice monthly calls to learn about what is going on within your business and how your marketing objectives can be better achieved through using online tools. We will work with you to develop strategies to make your offline marketing objectives more efficacious by using these instruments.
• Jet maintenance: Your Co-Pilot will ensure that all of your instruments are up to snuff and safe for rocket flight. By working with you and by managing all of your online tools, including Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Ava Living, and your blog (blog copywriting additional), your business will be equipped for the steep trajectory. After your Social Media LaunchPad, you don’t want your tools to sit idle and unwatched.
