I picked two local competitors to
review - one being a personal trainer and the other a personal
nutritionist. Following is my review of the effectiveness of each
business' SMN strategy:
Chris Keith - personal trainer in
San Diego:
http://sdpersonaltrainer.com/
- Facebook: 1,055 likes
- Twitter: No activity
- YouTube: 30 video clips; each with approximately 100 views
- Google+: About half a dozen reviews - all positive
- Yelp: Link doesn't work, but yelp reviews are all positive
Chris seems to have good
cross-representation on the social media sites. When googling 'personal
trainers san diego', Chris comes up FIRST on the google page rank, without a paid sponsorship listing.
Chris's site is not high on actual content updates, other than the Youtube videos
(which were posted awhile back).
Based on Chris' google page rank, his facebook followers, and his positive yelp reviews, I would give him high scores on SMN results. He appears to deliver as promised, and will be a good competitor to follow and emulate.
Sweet Beet Nutrition - San Diego
based Personal Nutrition:
http://www.sweetbeetnutrition.com/
This personal nutritionist ( Amy Carson) focuses on special-needs based diets, such as gluten free and other dietary restrictions. Her SMN lineup is as follows:
- Facebook: 193 likes
- Twitter: 29 followers
- LinkedIn: Informational only
In summary I think facebook is a required cost of entry SMN site for a business, as virtually every business I explore has a facebook page. Additionally, for my business (Manvolution), I think Youtube would be a good site to add video training content.
