Social Small Biz aims to provide useful information that is relevant and helpful to small businesses looking to get going with social media marketing.

With this in mind, we are keen to encourage small businesses or those who help small businesses, to share their tips and experiences on the site.

Below are the main opportunities we have available. If you are interested in any of these please get in touch. You can also send us a message if you have an idea not included you’d like to suggest.

Case studies

We are running a new case study section on the site where we ask businesses that are using social media seven questions about their social media marketing. This aims to help and provide information to other small businesses looking to take their first steps. If this is something you would like to be involved in then please let us know your answers to the questions below. If you could also send us a picture of you including your full name and job title, that would be great!

  1. In no more than 50 words explain what your business is.
  2. How do you use social media as a business?
  3. What are your business/marketing objectives for social media?
  4. Do you measure the success of your social media marketing? If so, how?
  5. How does social media fit in with the other marketing your company does?
  6. Do you have plans to increase your use of social media in 2010?
  7. What would be your top 3 tips for businesses looking to get involved in social media?

Social Small Biz Expert Panel

We are also launching a Social Small Biz expert panel. This would involve being sent a question every week by email related to social media to answer – the best answers from the panel would be featured on the site. Let us know if you would be interested in being on the panel and we will add you to the distribution list.

Guest Blog Posts

We are always keen to hear from people who are eager to write a guest post for the site. We are quite fussy about what goes up in order to maintain the quality of the site. Blog posts need to be quite short and snappy and offer something really useful and practical for the small business readers we have on the site.

Obviously it goes without saying that this should not just be a publicity piece for your company. If you are interested in writing a guest blog post, do send us over a short paragraph explaining what your post would cover and why it would be interesting/useful for small businesses. Take a look at the other posts on the site to get an idea of what we like to feature. If you can send links to other posts you have written in the past then so much the better!
