admin — Fri, 17 Jul 2009 14:16:27 +0000

We’re launching another site, and this time, much smoother having recently brought desktopmedia-training.com online, utilizing the same developers. We can’t say enough about Wordpress. The more we use it, the more we appreciate what’s under the hood. We are moving from an old Mambo site, dm-corp.com, and have used the following tools:

BlueHost.com (for hosting my solutions, this has been very easy)
WooThemes.com (utilizing their Gazette template)
Building a Wordpress Blog People Want to Read, by Scott McNulty
Images from iStock Photography
Icons from WooThemes

Free Plug-ins as follows (and growing):

Easy Contact
Twitter for Wordpress
ShareThis
SEO tool

DesktopMedia’s Social Media Network

admin — Sat, 11 Jul 2009 20:25:59 +0000

Nothing has impacted our work with marketing professionals more in the last 24 months than SM. Since many marketing managers are digital immigrants trying adopt these new channels quickly and struggling with load balancing vs. ROI and wondering where the analytics will come from, given its low cost of entry, it remains in high growth territory despite the economic decline. When Facebook’s market value surpasses that of CBS, there can be little doubt this channel or these conversations are having impact and should be factored into your ongoing strategy.

DesktopMedia twitters, almost daily, about marketing technologies and how social media is factoring into the industries we serve as well as its impact on varying business units from sales (huge impact on CRM), to marketing specific, to customer service, to corporate communications, to R&D and more.

While we will selectively discuss SM here at the site, we will constantly point out developments we feel will impact our clients and prospective clients throughout the week via our twitter stream. Therefore find us in the following channels:

twitter.com/desktopmedia (our most active communication channel)
youtube.com/desktopmediatraining (posting class videos and public speaking engagements)
slideshare.net/desktopmedia (presentations, topic specific, for all kinds of industries)
delicious.com/cindiano (bookmarks of companies, products and ideas that are relevant to marketing technologies)
linkedin.com/in/cateindiano (founders profile)
