3. Complimentary tweets about your brand (free Twitter exposure)

4. Facebook likes, posts and links (social marketing)

5. Your content embedded on third-party websites (syndicated exposure & possible links)

6. UGC (insightful reader comments & feedback)

7. SlideShare followers (future brand advocates)

8. More views of your previously-published presentations on SlideShare (more exposure)

 

Don't believe us? Here is a screenshot of what happened when our presentation, '20 Simple Rules of Social Business Success,' which was posted a mere 22 hours ago on SlideShare, was featured, for free, on it's home page for the day. These are the actual results for one almost one full day, mind you. Think about the long term brand impact of having this presentation published in SlideShare. Takes all the metrics below and multiply them by five or more.

Imagine if you were to post 10, 20 or 50 presentations to SlideShare? Can you begin to see the huge positive effect that syndicating your content on social networks might have on your business?

Even if SlideShare does not feature your presentation on its home page for free, you can always pay $299-399 and pay for the premier placement. Or you can opt to promote a link to your your SlideShare presentation yourself via Digg, Facebook, Twitter and/or the social media destinations of your choosing. For good measure, embed your SlideShare presentation into your company blog as well.
