Pinterest is a social media network, which allows users to organize and <strong>share videos and images through virtual pin boards</strong>, which are categorized into <strong>areas of interest</strong> and specific themes.</p> <p>Users add pins either by using the ‘Pin It’ button or simply by uploading pictures or images. Users can also re-pin images and videos of their choice, adding an image that already exists on Pinterest to one’s own pin board. It is somewhat <strong>similar to retweeting</strong>.</p> <p><strong>The greater the number of re-pins, the more is the visibility or reach of the image.</strong></p> Tue, 24 Apr 2012 13:35:18 +0200 http://blog.bmma.be/blog_detail.php?langue=en&id=159 Webinar Marketing: Attract and Address a Large Audience <p><img style="float: left; margin: 10px 10px 10px 10px;" src="https://www.globalcube.net/clients/bmmablog/content/medias/Webinar_Marketing_Attract_Address_Large_Audience01.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="262" /></p> <p>Conventional <strong>face-to-face</strong> marketing seminars are considered as an effective relationship builder in the business world.</p> <p>However, <strong>travel costs and the time</strong> spent away from office act as significant barriers, when it comes to getting and retaining attendance at such events.</p> <p>This is one of major reasons why companies are now increasingly <strong>turning to the Internet</strong> as an effective tool for cutting costs, increasing productivity, generating revenue and communicating.</p> <p><strong>Webinars or web seminars </strong>are a cost efficient way for organizations to:</p> <p>- Get <strong>solution-oriented information</strong> across to the target audience</p> <p>- Build <strong>strong relationships </strong>with customers and prospects</p> <p>- Generate quality <strong>leads</strong></p> <p>- Build their <strong>brand</strong></p> Tue, 17 Apr 2012 11:07:40 +0200 http://blog.bmma.be/blog_detail.php?langue=en&id=158 LUNCH BMMA - 2012/04/24 - Bea Ercolini <table border="0"> <tbody> <tr> <td><img src="https://www.globalcube.net/clients/bmmablog/content/medias/images/orateurs/lunch2012/lunch2012_cycle02_bea_ercolini.jpg" alt="" width="148" height="183" /></td> <td><br /></td> <td> <p><em><strong><br />1st date of us cycle</strong></em><br />24th of April<br /><span style="color: #0489d6;"><strong>"Escape" Marketing.<br />A dream strategy?</strong><strong> </strong></span><br /><br /><strong>Elle Belgium:</strong><br />What recipes will help enable <br />the dream?<br /><br /><span style="color: #0489d6;"><strong>Béa Ercolini</strong></span><br />Chief Editor,<br />ELLE Belgium</p> </td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <p> </p> <p><strong> </strong></p> Wed, 11 Apr 2012 11:00:00 +0200 http://blog.bmma.be/blog_detail.php?langue=en&id=157 Build a Loyal Following: Winning Customers Back <p><img style="float: left; margin: 10px 10px 10px 10px;" src="https://www.globalcube.net/clients/bmmablog/content/medias/Build_Loyal_Following_Winning_Customers_Back01.jpg" alt="" width="350" height="324" /></p> <p>Every business loses some <strong>customers</strong> over time.
