| Blog Sites |
Blogs are extremely effective in presenting key
topics to community members and asking them for their opinions.
The key is to create blogs which are easy to maintain, topical, and
focused on key community members. The objective is to engage the
highly active community members & community experts in a dialog with you |
| Bulletin Boards |
Bulletin boards are similar to blogs in their
engagement capabilities. It allows you to structure topic areas to
allow community members to "cruise" many areas to find areas they would
like to provide commentary and their expertise. |
| Video & Powerpoint Presentations |
A lot of our clients don't have the time to write
blogs, articles for the websites, and other collateral material.
However, give them a few Powerpoint slides on a topic & 5-10 minutes and
they can talk on important topics impacting their company or their
industry. MSI can show you low cost, easy to use, and effective
tools & techniques to use these types of systems to increase the
effectiveness & relevancy of your website & to engage with your high
value communities in a two-way dialog. |
