Social Media Development
Bring your business into the conversation
More and more, our clients are asking us: "How can social media help our business?"
It's certainly no longer a frivolous extra.
Connecting with vast, powerful social networks (or offering social tools on your site) is smart business. Social media can build trust, reduce customer service costs, promote your brand - and ultimately make you more sales.
Because our in-house team has some serious development skills, we can build everything from bespoke social media applications, to integrated forums and social networks.
If you have an idea for a social media application (whether a Facebook plugin or an iPhone app), or want to talk about our social media development services - get in touch.
Social media - not just for fun
Businesses have realised that social media isn't just a way for people to share holiday photos.
In fact, it offers new ways to connect with customers. Clever use of social media can:
- Lower your customer service costs. By providing product reviews, Q&A sections, forums etc. your customers will answer common questions for you (saving you on support costs).
- Boost sales. Letting customers make recommendations, share opinions, review items and interact with your brand can help you improve sales.
- Help your brand "go viral". Create something useful or entertaining and your brand name could spread through the social web.
- Operate more efficiently. We can build applications that manage workflow, open up dialogues, and even encourage public feedback for free market research.
- Increase trust. If you're open, connected and social - you're more likely to be seen as trustworthy.
Integrated social media solutions
Maybe you need us to build social media features into your site?
You might want to create a forum, complete with personal profiles and blogs. You might want to add a paid membership area. We could make it easy for you to upload embedded photo or video content (such as Flickr images or YouTube clips).
Whatever you need, our developers can seamlessly integrate it into your website.
We also have a range of trusted partners who specialise in media production and creative content delivery (from video clips to 3D digital graphics). Ideal for creative campaigns.
