Stay on the watch with Google news alerts
| July 12th, 2008 admin Posted in Social Media Strategies | |
Behind the tens and thousands of blog subscriptions and email sign-ups - we tend to forget how immensely useful services like Google Alert can be. Its almost like a robot doing your routine Google searches for you.
I would recommend Google Alerts to all of you. Go in and put a watch on events that are taking place, the latest event marketing trends and also on your competitors businesses. Google aggregates the news (blogs, sites, news sites, etc) and emails them to you. Anything that can influence your plans, event, contingencies, budgets, clients, vendors should be kept a careful watch on.
Its a must-have for researching and event planning phases. At first I thought I would have emails flooding my account which I’ll never get around to read and would eventually have to keep archiving them in my gmail account as they come. To my surprise, it was just the opposite. They do not flood you. They do not intrude you. They always get back with good results.
Its my personal research robot, and I love it.
