The Social Vine is a Social Media Marketing consultancy for small to medium sized businesses. They offer tailored and personalised Social media marketing workshop training and a complete social media marketing management service. MISSION To provide small to medium sized businesses with simple, effective and engaging tools to develop their social media presence. WHY ENGAGE YOUR BUSINESS IN SOCIAL MEDIA? Simply put - because your customers are there. Social marketing can nurture and build relationships by valuing customer opinions and keeping them entertained. If used well, social media can become your most powerful ‘word of mouth’ asset. A well-integrated social brand will be key in the success of your business. SERVICES Training Workshops – MANAGE IT YOURSELF We develop personalised training workshops to empower you to take your business forward socially in a way that suits your objectives, target audience, industry and budget. Social Media Marketing Management – LET US MANAGE IT FOR YOU Don’t have the time or resources to manage it yourself? The Social Vine can look after the everyday management of your social media pages by immersing ourselves in your business, industry trends and by understanding what will engage your customers. THE TEAM When you first meet Emma Henry and Michelle Tinsley, joint Directors of Melbourne’s, The Social Vine, you immediately understand why they’ve joined forces in a socially driven business venture. Their business idea was built from the passionate belief that social media provides a unique opportunity for small to medium sized businesses to achieve remarkable brand awareness and word of mouth beyond their shop fronts. We have a great team of web designers, graphic designers, videographers, photographers, content creators, curators, writers and those fancy people who call themselves ‘strategists’. EXPERIENCE Leveraging thirty years of combined marketing and advertising experience, Emma and Michelle's goal is to show what’s possible using social media and impart a valuable skillset on how to BE social and not just DO social. We are currently managing BL Marine’s Facebook page. Ten months in and we have achieved a 551% increase in organic fan growth. Check out their page to review the content and engagement - www.facebook.com/BLMARINE1 “We see businesses trying to be everywhere on social media, simply because it’s free, but their efforts seem wasted with little or no engagement. Without a clear objective, strategy, creative content plan and social media management skillset, you may as well throw your time down a big dark hole,” says Emma. OUR UNIQUE TRAINING PHILOSOPHY What sets The Social Vine's training workshops apart from others is the tailored approach to each individual business. As no two businesses are alike, they undertake a very customised process to develop a personalised hands on workshop. They take the time to get to know your business objectives and combine competitor and industry insights to develop a detailed training program including social media marketing strategy planning, creative content creation, social media management skills and efficient measurement and analysis concepts. You ‘ll walk away with the tools, insights and ongoing support to take your business forward socially and confidently. THE TOTAL TRUTH The Social Vine team will tell you upfront that if you are serious about making the most of your social media presence it is addictive just like bubble wrap… once you pop, you can’t stop! Social Media management must be incorporated into your daily routine. What you share must be relevant, engaging, empowering, entertaining, informative… yes all of these! Customers will quickly lose interest if you don’t provide value in their eyes. People love to buy online, but they don’t like to be sold to. The key is to stand out and not be scrolled past!
