Karen, Preparation is definitely needed in social media – in fact, things change so rapidly, “preparation” must happen on a monthly basis to keep current. SEO is a moving target as well, but not moving as quickly I think.

Brad, this is a great post. So often people rush into SEO because they know it drives traffic but are unaware of what it really takes to make it successful. I think it is better to dig deep to understand and meet the needs of your target audience than to jump head first into SEO or social media for that matter. Your list is a handy reality check.

Hi Jami, Great to hear from you. The best way for company leaders to understand the what, why, and how of social media is for them to participate. Once people get into it, they generally develop good ideas about how to approach it in the business. Would that help in your situation?

No, Jedediah’s takes orders over the phone and has an email address….

Unfortunately all I can remember is what wasn’t there. No email, no order. I think it was for a trade show premium but it’s not coming to me. I’ll think of it in a week or so.

How ’bout: You only accept orders via Fax.

And yes, I recently ran into this.
