About Social Media Marketing: The CommunitySherpa Perspective

At CommunitySherpa we have a highly developed perspective on the role of social media in the marketing chain.

We believe that the core of a powerful social media program is Content. The development of targeted content that is consistent with your Brand Story, which is distributed through social media platforms that align with your customers and prospects preferences, will generate measurable results in your business performance.

Social media marketing requires expertise and management, and at CommunitySherpa our mission is to do the heavy lifting associated with building content and managing communities. This work doesn’t remove your marketing team from the process: it enhances your resources and focuses your team on the work of identifying and engaging high-quality prospects and your existing customers.

Our Chairman & CEO, Dan McCarthy, has been an early adopter of social media in marketing. In his personal blog, ViralHousingFix, Dan has shared many of his observations about the application of social media to marketing and has articulated some foundation principles.
