It's been a while since I last posted here and so I thought it was about time! Here is this month's "Tip Of The Month" which was featured in the monthly newsletter that was sent out yesterday, just in case you missed it!

The internet is a powerful tool and with technology like Facebook and Twitter at your fingertips, you might want to take advantage of these great Social Media gadgets to promote products, if you don't already. Here are a few helpful hints to get started!
  • Make your post relevant & unique - With so much online competition, you don't want to post the same thing as everyone else, so use your 140 characters wisely.
  • Utilize the different third-party tools for Twitter like HootSuite and Tweetdeck to see what others are posting so you don't post the same things.
  • Post about games relevant to the season or holiday.
  • Post about new games.
  • Make it personal - tell your customers why YOU love the game or would play it, not just that it's for sale.
  • Shorten your tracking code so 1) users don't know it's a tracking code and 2) it will fit within the context of the post
  • Have fun with hashtags! Have a fun new game your promoting - let the masses know! #partygame
Example Tweet/FB Post: What happened first? The TV was introduced or Disneyland opened? Find out by playing one of my fave Family Reunion games! #partygame (you would insert your unique tracking code in where the link is)
