Digital Growth Strategies

Digital Growth Strategies, a Web 2.0 strategic consulting group, helps companies understand the potential of Internet based “Web 2.0″ communications technologies. If you visit the Digital Growth Strategies Plumb Social site, you will see how the Plumb Social process applies to them. Here are some highlights:

• Since CEO John Lee had a LinkedIn account and a Facebook profile already in place, the Plumb Social team created a Facebook page, MySpace profile, Twitter account, and Ping.fm account.
• After creating a YouTube account, Plumb Social organized the videos in a custom video player on the DGS site.
• Plumb Social created a Flickr account for DGS and used applications to display the images on the social networking sites, including Facebook and MySpace.
• A Delicious.com account allows DGS to save and tag interesting Websites and blogs that they find online, as well as view the most popular bookmarks being saved right now across many areas of interest.
• Using the Ping.fm account, DGS can update Facebook, Twitter, and MySpace easily, as well as other social accounts they may choose to register with.
• All of the blog entries DGS posts on their Plumb Social site are fed into relevant social networking sites - Facebook and MySpace - using RSS Feed applications.
• Digital Growth Strategies uses its PS account as its main Website, so their domain name is seamlessly mapped onto their PS account.
• John Lee of DGS needed a custom theme to go with his new logo and Web presence, and the PS team helped him achieve this.

Women and Mutual Funds

Women and Mutual Funds is a timely book for women, a group that has historically been overlooked when it comes to financial education. If you go to the Women and Mutual Funds Plumb Social site, you can see how the Plumb Social process applies to them. Here are some highlights:

• As a financial education book, we created a balanced presence for the author, Donald S. Gudhus, by developing a presence in professional networking sites like LinkedIn, as well as social sites targeted to readers like Good Reads.
• After creating their Flickr account, the images were linked from Flickr and organized in their gallery.
• The author will be launching a book tour soon, so an Upcoming.org account was created and the events highlighted on their blog site as a badge. Upcoming.org badges are also included on their social networking pages and profiles.
• The Plumb Social team created a Facebook profile, Facebook page, MySpace page, Twitter account, and Ping.fm account for them.
• Using their Ping.fm account, they will be able to update their Facebook, Twitter, and MySpace pages easily, as well as other social accounts they may choose to register with.
• All of the blog entries they make on their Plumb Social site are fed into relevant social networking sites - specifically, Facebook and MySpace.
• Since they would like to sell their book, there is also an Amazon link so visitors can purchase Women and Mutual Funds.

Note: Once they have video clips available, they will be incorporated into their Plumb Social page and their social networking sites via YouTube.

The Land of Smaerd

The Land of Smaerd is a charming children’s book with an important message. If you go to the The Land of Smaerd Plumb Social site, you can see how the Plumb Social process applies to them. Here are some highlights:

• As children’s literature, it made more sense to develop a presence for them on niche social networking sites like JacketFlap, GoodReads, and Shelfari as opposed to Squidoo.
• They already had an account with the Gaia Community, so it was included as a link on their site.
• After creating their Flickr account, the images were linked from Flickr and organized in their gallery by book images and contributor’s photos.
• Their contributors have many events, so an Upcoming.org account was created and the events highlighted on their blog site as a badge. Upcoming.org badges are also included on their social networking pages and profiles.
• The Plumb Social team created a Facebook profile, Facebook page, MySpace page, Twitter account, and Ping.fm account for them.
• Using their Ping.fm account, they will be able to update their Facebook, Twitter, and MySpace pages easily, as well as other social accounts they may choose to register with.
• All of the blog entries they make on their Plumb Social site are fed into relevant social networking sites - specifically, Facebook and MySpace.
• Since they would like to sell their book, there is also an Amazon link so visitors can purchase The Land of Smaerd.

Note: Once they have video clips available, they will be incorporated into their Plumb Social page and their social networking sites via YouTube.
