Glint helps adapt social media marketing (SMM) transition into the field of PR


The landscape of PR has changed indefinitely as a result of the technological boom. At the forefront of this change? Social media. Chances are that everyone reading this message has at one time or another received an e-mail about it, attended a seminar devoted entirely to it, or, at the very least, heard their peers talking about it. It seems like everyone on the Internet is offering up their opinion and advice on why companies need to be taking advantage of social media, but very few are consulting clients or actually educating them on how to do that. We decided to be proactive and to take matters into our own hands.

Glint is now proud to offer new and existing clients Social Media Marketing (SMM) services. We will gladly educate any of our clients on the growing importance of social media as a PR outlet, and we now offer complete setup and maintenance of clients' social media presences. We understand that our clients have enough to worry about without the hassle of setting up accounts on multiple social networking sites, becoming accustomed with how to use each one and searching for pertinent material to post. By letting us construct and maintain their social media sites, our clients can go about business as usual without the stress and time constraints that social media can impose.

To find out more about our services visit www.glintadv.com, or contact Ryan Cormier at 817.616.0320 to schedule a consultation appointment.
