More Than a New Spring... A New Media World

It's hard not to be excited by the new media, new marketing revolutions that we are "swimming" in. Sure, new opportunities can be challenging; but, bottom line, the new media world is thriving based on authenic, new channels for meaning-filled communications. We hope what's offered below is useful to you as you navigate this new world. Please send us a virtual postcard to let us know. We look forward to hearing from you. And, we hope you will be part of our first free Internet marketing webinar on Thursday, May 27th. Read on...


"The World Has Completely Changed"

“The World Has Completely Changed“

One particular segment of Conan O'Brien's very funny interview video at Google can actually be viewed as a kind of social media marketing "case study." Conan explains how Twitter literally changed his professional life in the wake of his departure from NBC. Far from a technologist, Conan got a first hand experience of the ways in which "the world" as he says it, "has completely changed." This realization is in apparently stark contrast to how far the execs at NBC are from "getting it." And, of course, this is just one particular (but large scale) example of the dramatic changes that are upon us all due to the explosion of social media.

The depth of these changes are also underscored by a quote from the recent update to the visually dynamic and informative YouTube video, "Social Media Revolution 2 (Refresh)" from the authors of the book, "Socialnomics" which says, "Social Media is not a fad, but a fundamental shift in how we communicate." Yes, the changes are that big.

Do you "get it" or are you still sitting on the edge of the social media "pool" thinking about jumping in?

ComBridges Client Walks the Talk of "Best Practices"

ComBridges Client Walks the Talk of “Best Practices“

Yudelson Associates is in the business of recommending "best practices" to the green building industry. Their web presence, developed in collaboration with ComBridges, reflects some of our "best practices" as well.

ComBridges' recent website redesign for Yudelson Associates' website, www.greenbuildconsult.com has added new visual interest with a fresh new look and a nifty animated Flash header, if we do say so ourselves. And, there is quick and easy access to all of their social media channels via new custom graphic buttons.

We are also pleased to report that the search engine visibility of this site is excellent due to the fact that GreenBuildConsult.com's content is regularly updated with blog posts and press releases. In fact, GreenBuildConsult.com continues to rank well in search engines for strategically selected keyword phrases like "green building consultant" due to our ongoing SEO (search engine optimization) efforts on their behalf.
