BetterTrades Social Media

Every company that wants to remain in touch with its customer base looks for ways to connect and be available to those who use its services. One of the ways BetterTrades has tried to stay connected to its students is through social media. BetterTrades has a presence on each of the most popular social media sites on the Internet, which makes it easier for students to ask questions or explain problems.

Social media is defined as "online content created by people using highly accessible and scalable publishing technologies." It allows people to connect online and form personal and business relationships. BetterTrades social media involvement includes spots on Facebook and Twitter.

The BetterTrades Facebook social media site is update on a regular basis. The introductory paragraph briefly explains a visitor what the company is about and how it helps educate students about the stock market in order for them to control their own financial destiny.

Visitors to this BetterTrades social media site enjoy looking through the images posted on Facebook. Some of the photos are from the 2009 Traders Super Summit, which was held in Orlando, Florida, and includes shots of the instructors, people in attendance, and members of the cast that filmed the company's television commercial.

Others who come to the Facebook site will want to connect with other traders. Visitors will post questions or make inquiries, while others will look for potential trading partners.

The Facebook site also has a link to YouTube, where a visitor can access a video of BetterTrades founder Freddie Rick as he explains the advantages of the company's system to a group of new enrollees. Other pictures are from the company's annual meeting and other images are available to see some behind-the-scenes from the company's corporate offices in Norcross, Georgia.

Another social media BetterTrades uses is Twitter, the free service that allows people to stay in touch with quick, frequent answers to questions. BetterTrades uses Twitter to keep its legion of followers up to date about breaking market news, company earnings and upcoming economic reports. Twitter is a free service.

Many of the company's coaches and faculty members have a presence on LinkedIn, the business-oriented site social networking site. It's a good way to send personal messages to the company executives and those who teach the BetterTrades material.
