Social Media Consulting

Social Media is the universal term used to describe the tools that make digital collaboration and communication simple. These tools and social networks have given our everyday people the power to imagine, create, share, and collaborate on a scale never seen before. This may not sound impressive right now, but this change in behavior will change the way you brand, market, and share the message about your products and services. Are you ready?

Pop Lab’s team of social media strategists can help you gain some clarity on how to best use social media in your enterprise. Our Social Media Optimization (SMO) services integrate knowledge of web culture, social networking, online marketing and consumer generated media marketing to create a social media strategy that gets you participating in this powerful emerging phenomena.

Social Media Strategy Development

An effective social media campaign has the ability to attract and engage visitors in a way that organic search results and paid advertising cannot.

Search Engine Reputation Management

Sometimes inaccurate and even negative information can rank highly in search engine results; just below or worse above, company branded results making it highly visible to current/future employees, customers, vendors, investors, and the media. This information can come from articles, product reviews and other sites created by disgruntled customers or employees. Important company constituents could be exposed to negative comments about your brand that you have no control over.

Our experienced teams of search experts can help you dissect this issue by with resources that find and track negative comments and the behavior that leads people to search for them.
