Hiring A Marketing Firm
Sooner or later, most cork and cork products business operations turn to marketing firms for guidance.

Additionally, you'll want to make sure that the firm you hire is familiar with how technology is being used to forge connections with customers in your market niche.

Social Media Monitoring
Social media has become a prominent fixture in marketing. For small businesses, an aggressive social media campaign can level the playing field by generating online buzz that competes with corporate marketing initiatives. Even though the potential for social media to generate positive conversations about your product is good, the potential for it to create negative, online word-of-mouth is a concern that must be taken seriously. All cork and cork products businesses are especially vulnerable to negative exposure through social media. To counter negative social media, you'll need to monitor your brand's online presence and enter the conversation, redirecting negative discussions toward more positive topics.
