Executive and professionals from all walks of life know they need to get on board with having an online presence but the process of establishing their profiles and understanding what platforms and tools to use to build and foster relationships are daunting, that often, they abandon social media or are winging it and don’t consider working with a Social media marketing strategist. This is why Ana Lucia Novak founded SocialAna.com after starting her virtual business in 2007. ” When I started my business, I found a common theme occurring as executives and professionals began reaching out to me via LinkedIn, Twitter, and Facebook about social media methodology, best practices, and mostly “How to’s”. There are many layers to establishing a social media presence, especially as social media continues to evolve by the minute, so there is a need for one on one consulting, training and implementation”.
Ana Lucia Novak spent 20 years in the high tech industry in Silicon Valley, primarily working along side CEO’s and C+ executives in marketing, sales, human resources and event planning. She acquired exceptional software and technical skills but had no idea that someday she would be running her own virtual marketing consulting business. Her love for technology, organization and tools enabled her to offer services where she could build out people’s social media infrastructure and organize their online profiles in way to streamline their online marketing activities in a seamless manner. Hence, her nickname among her friends as the “social media architect”.
In 2009, she decided to invest her time and money in online courses ranging from online marketing, SEO, eCommerce and technical courses to apply to her own business. “Sometimes you don’t know realize how much you know until you’re asked the question, but as I went through each course, I realized that I was well versed in some of the marketing strategies and tactics, but just didn’t know the language for it. “, Ana Lucia quotes, ” In fact, ‘social media’ wasn’t even a term used back then, although the concepts are the same. The only difference is the ability to form relationships quickly and the method used to get your message out there is instant; imagine reaching thousands within seconds, and across timezones and borders.”
