PORTLAND , Ore. (November 4, 2009) –

Anvil Media, Inc., a search engine marketing (SEM) and social media marketing (SMM) services agency, announced today the release of their new white paper, “The Marketer’s Guide to Getting Started with Social Media Marketing.” This white paper follows up the recent success of their award-winning work in social media marketing.

This free social media marketing white paper outlines the fundamentals of social media marketing, including the definition and size of social media, platform facts and benefits. In addition, the social media white paper outlines strategies for tying social media into business and marketing strategies, such as search engine optimization (SEO), and how to use Anvil’s MCE2 process to help marketers get started. This should serve as a resource on how to effectively begin marketing businesses through social media. Recommendations include ways to utilize social media platforms for brand awareness, lead generation, sales, customer engagement, and consumer insight.

“It’s no longer a question whether or not to get involved in social media, it’s about doing it right,” stated Kent Lewis, President of Anvil Media.  “Clients are looking to us for help getting the most out of social media, so we developed the social media white paper to share some of our insights.”

The social media white paper comes on the heels of recent success Anvil clients have had with social media.

Then in July, Oregon State University’s new social media web site, Powered By Orange, was referenced by Mashableas a unique way to reach alumni. Grand America Hotels has also been nominated for arecent award.
