Having a business start-up is a learning curve all on it’s own for me. I read and read mostly everyday about ways to get my brand out there, my name recognised, my business work in order and MARKETING!

Ohhh what marketing has become in this day and age. You cannot read a paragraph about small business marketing without reading the words free social media sites. Makes sense of course, here you are a start-up business with not tons of sales coming in… you can’t be paying for a coloured page in Vogue which fetches around $128,000 and I am not talking about front inside cover or back cover (anyone who works in fashion understand what the difference is here.)

I have to use the most inundated social media forums, much to the chagrin of my fellow friends who get bombarded by me all the time with new products and info regarding my business. I am on Facebook but by now you already know that and now I have dived into the realm of Twitter. I had been attempting to understand it’s functionality, how it works and why… and today was my most successful date for my acct. I had about 8 new followers.

So here’s to put puting away, so incase you wanted to come on over and join me on twitter please come follow me at http://twitter.com/nikiandlola
