About Volterra
Volterra helps companies who have tried social media and stopped, can’t keep up with the demands of social media, and don’t know where to start. Many companies incorporate social media into their marketing efforts, but over time, for whatever reason, shift from active participation in social media to sporadic, and finally they allow their efforts to dwindle to nothing, resulting in dormant accounts, stale content, and quiet communities.
Content, conversation, community. These are all buzzwords, but they relate to the efforts and objectives related to successfully executing social media marketing. Unfortunately, many companies do a poor job of allocating the necessary time, resources, and investment to support their social media efforts and struggle to keep up with the demands of maintaining an active social media presence.
LinkedIn? Facebook? Twitter? Instagram? Snapchat? Which channel is right for your company? What is the right approach? Where do you begin? Who do I need to involve? These are just a few of the questions that make companies hesitate about incorporating social media into their sales and marketing efforts. However, there are answers to those questions and more.
