Achieving Success Using Viral Marketing And A Public Relations Campaign

We have many clients who have achieved success even during these tight times by enlisting the help of Libra Design and Media. One of our clients, Vegan Chic, was in need of getting the word out about their unique business and its concepts. We began by implementing a fresh, effective public relations campaign that has resulted in highly targeted, national print media exposure, as well as various online articles reaching Vegan Chic’s primary market. As the business grew, the campaign expanded to achieve even better results by adding a successful viral marketing campaign which set about further reaching their audiences through blog articles and postings.

The success Vegan Chic has achieved with our services has been phenomenal! A recent name change dropped their Google ranking to a PR2 but through blog postings achieved with a viral marketing campaign and online product reviews brought about by their public relations campaign, Vegan Chic is back up to aPR5 and climbing in just a few short months. Vegan Chic is near their goal of once again being #1 in Google searches helping potential customers find them quickly and easily. The continued success of articles and reviews of their products has even allowed Vegan Chic to cancel expensive pay-per-click advertising they were paying for without seeing a downturn in sales!

Web 2.0

The start of a new year offers an opportunity to present your business in a new light. First impressions are everything, and a newly updated web site is crucial to capturing your target audience and keeping them engaged. The latest craze, Web 2.0, is a design concept that takes a direction recommended for every business, especially with the market being so tight during these difficult economic times. A new Web 2.0 design for the new year can put your business above your competitors and help create buzz within social networks.

Entrepreneur magazine, in its December 2008 issue, listed Web 2.0 as one of the trends to watch in 2009. Web 2.0 sites offer a more interactive experience for site visitors. These sites provide a more creative way to present your business, and a more interactive experience for potential consumers with increased user participation. Instead of a static site, you will present a site that encourages visitors to view videos, visit your blog, Facebook, or MySpace page or chat with other members on a forum. There’s more use of photos, often with a large image on the home page or a page design that captures attention. Inviting visitors to become an active member of your site will hold their attention and can turn visitors into customers more efficiently.

Libra Design and Media is happy to discuss freshening up your site with a new Web 2.0 design to make your site a more creative and interactive space. For more information, or a free, no obligation quote, please contact us at http://www.libradesignandmedia.com/contact.shtml.

Public Relations for Small Businesses

A public relations campaign, or a PR campaign, is a marketing strategy that is based on working with the media. A highly effective PR campaign can give your business the media exposure it needs and deserves.

Depending on your business' marketing goals, the campaign can be organized in many different ways. Most commonly, small to medium sized businesses are in need of product review articles, web articles and other types of media exposure in this same arena. Through effectively reaching key media persons at various magazines, web sites, ezines, blogs and other media resources, a successful public relations campaign will help your business achieve media exposure. This media exposure can help with bringing traffic to your web site and creating an overall awareness of your business and brands.

With our robust media materials and excellent working relationship with an array of executives, editors and other media staff members, we have effectively and successfully helped a variety of businesses achieve a higher overall awareness in the media. Even during these tough economic times, our clients are enjoying growth and prosperity due to the exposure they receive from their PR campaigns.

A public relations campaign is a perfect fit for any small businesses striving to create name and brand recognition. Because the type of media exposure a PR campaign brings tends to be more valuable than advertising, and costs a fraction of what you'd pay to advertise in any number of national publications, it's a good investment for most any business. A good PR agency will provide a PR report to show the progress of your PR campaign, to include estimated ad values of each type of media exposure received, as well as potential or upcoming articles to be published about your business and products or services.
