Innovative Social Media Site for Artists and Fans – Show America
22 AugNew York City, NY (PRWEB) August 22, 2012
Show America, the most anticipated social media website since Pinterest, was conceptualized as a hybrid of a social aggregator website like Facebook with a professional networking site like LinkedIn. “I was looking around at all of the social media sites on the internet, and realized that there had not yet been a site that caters specifically to artists, their work and their fans,” said Craig Escobar, CEO of Show America. By combining the features of both of these kind of sites, ShowAmerica has been able to create a place where artists from many different industries are able to reach their fans, showcase their media, and promote themselves all from one profile page.
Building upon the functional capabilities of Linkedin and Facebook, ShowAmerica.com will allow users to combine their traditional resume, their artist portfolio and their social profiles to create a “ProFolio.” This ProFolio can be converted to an artist’s website, online portfolio or downloaded as an Electronic Press Kit (EPK) with only a few simple clicks. ProFolios allow the user to seamlessly link and manage different Social Media profiles, making it easy to build a large fan base very quickly and communicate more efficiently and effectively with their fans.
The ProFolio feature is just the beginning of all the features ShowAmerica.com gives to its members. The site also allows users to create and market their own video blog. Fans and connections of Show America’s artists and performers will be able to stream their media items on one of the fastest content delivery networks in the world. As members of the site, users can create groups, bands, teams and even group sessions for project collaborations while easily selling their artwork, event tickets and much more.
In addition, artists and performers can enter into competitions for the chance to win valuable prizes like record deals, contracts, sponsorships, lessons, scholarships, cash and much more. Participating in and winning competitions will help to raise their status and give them recognition. The comments they receive on these competition entries give participants valuable feedback that will help them improve their skills for future events and performances.
“Show America’s competitions give participants a platform to hone their skills and also help other people hone theirs while allowing fans to get involved and feel like they have a personal stake in the success of the favorite artists,” said Escobar.
By combining the competitive crowd sourcing concept with networking, Show America offers a unique and effective application designed specifically for talented and creative people to be able to promote themselves to their fans and amplify their fan-base.

Social Media Exchange Site Open for Use by Personalities as Olympics Heat Continues to Surge
8 AugOttawa, ON (PRWEB) August 08, 2012
With Tweets and Facebook updates on the Olympics coming in left and right, and netizens flocking to follow or like the online hubs of their favorite athletes, staffers at Keeko says the social media exchange site is not just for businesses and social marketing; it’s good for athletes and other personalities too.
When one signs up for an account with Keeko, the site works by featuring the user’s account directly to its thousands of other users, making it easier for them to get Twitter followers or Facebook likes.
“Keeko is not limited to online businesses and marketing ventures,” says Diana Quartin, Creative Director of Clicking Labs. “Personalities looking to expand their network online can benefit from Keeko too, in that Keeko works non-stop in garnering more followers and likes for them, and driving traffic to their online spots even as the users are offline.”
She adds: “A wider audience for personalities means a wider reach for their message, updates, announcements, causes they have taken up, or in the case of the Olympics, announcement of their Olympic game schedules.”
Keeko provides a venue for users to earn free Facebook likes, Twitter followers, LinkedIn connections, and Google +1s by creating a community within Keeko, thereby making it an online gallery of pages and accounts that people can choose to follow in categories that are suited to personal interests.
Staffers add that the same advantages can be beneficial for musicians, politicians, newsmakers, and cause-oriented groups. Especially for up-and-coming personalities, Keeko says that a constantly rising number of followers and likes helps to spark that needed buzz.
Those interested can start expanding their network by logging on to http://www.keeko.com. To sign up, they will simply need an email address and a password; after which users can then begin to earn points.
More information and updates can also be found on their Twitter page.
About Keeko
Keeko is a wholly owned company by Clicking Labs. With dedication and perseverance they were able to bring together a diverse team of web professionals to provide internet businesses with creative web marketing strategies. Founded in Ottawa, Canada, the company has expanded operations to Cebu, Philippines in early 2011 to better serve its clients.

Turning Social Media Into New Sales with MarketMeSuite
8 AugA UK company spin-off that helps small and medium businesses use social media to market themselves has relocated to Cambridge after securing $1.1 million from a Boston venture capitalist.
MarketMeSuite, an affiliate of London-based Pie Dog Media Ltd., moved to the Cambridge Innovation Center after realizing the commercial advantages for local tech startups.
The Boston area “proved itself to be the ideal new location for our headquarters,” said CEO Tammy Kahn Fennell. “Its vibrant, creative and technically charged atmosphere is the right environment for us to continue growing our product, company and community of users.”
MarketMeSuite has more than 30,000 users, 70 percent of whom log in daily to access their Inbox for Social, a dashboard that helps them manage their existing social connections, Twitter feeds and Facebook and LinkedIn posts and turn them into sales leads, Kahn Fennell said.
Inbox for Social also enables users to uncover opportunities outside their current network by searching social channels, identifying people who are talking about topics related to their business and then opening a dialogue with those people, she said.
David Gerzof Richard, professor of social media marketing at Emerson College, said there are many Web companies, including HootSuite and Newton’s, that offer similar services to MarketMe.
“There may be some features that they’re offering that are different, but similar companies have been around for a while,” he said. “The tools they offer are definitely helpful — to see a discussion happening about your brand and be able to jump in on it.”
Jeff McCormick of Saturn Partners, the venture capitalist funding MarketMeSuite, acknowledged that social media marketing is a growing area, and it’s difficult to predict who the winners will be.
“But we clearly think MarketMeSuite has a vision for differentiating itself from other players in the market,” McCormick said. “Its execution and performance will ultimately decide.”
