More often than not, businesses that sell knowledge-based services tend to spend all of their time and energy working on projects or jobs for their customers and neglect the marketing strategies for their own company.  This holds true for FlashPoint Network as well.  We have been wrapped up in turning out sites and consulting with customers about their short and long-term marketing goals, that we have neglected our own marketing tools.  Well, my friends, now is the time for us to tame that beast.

We have had accounts with both Twitter and Facebook for a while now.  They, like this Web site, have quietly and patiently stood by while we completed the projects that have somehow been finding their way onto our plate.  Though business has not stopped altogether, it has lightened up to the point of us having some spare cycles.  This granted us the ability to focus our attention on our own needs so that we may A.) reach more people, B.) streamline our workflow, and C.) to ultimately make more money.

We're on Facebook!

We're on Facebook!

It has been a while since we first created a page on Facebook.  That being said, we cannot tout social network marketing without being able to do it ourselves.  So, going forward we will be posting topics related to the industry as well as useful tips and tricks to get your site noticed.  We may even throw a tutorial up every now and then...if we are feeling saucy that is.
