Our business relies on its brand – its unique identity that lets others recognize and (hopefully!) remember us. As business owners, we strive to maintain consistency in everything that bears our company’s name – from fonts and logos to slogans, signs and advertising. Now with the explosion of social media, a new problem has surfaced: how can we protect, maintain, (or even keep track of) our brand across the internet and more specifically, hundreds of social networking websites?
The website KnowEm.com is one solution. KnowEm simplifies the process by helping businesses and individuals secure their names and brands across hundreds of social media websites, all at once. It’s like the all-inclusive resort for brand management. You’re able to search and check the availability of your name or brand across 550 popular social sites and 40 domain names with just one click. You can choose to go to each site individually to secure your name or register the names directly through the KnowEm website.
Rather leave the task to someone else? KnowEm will even take care of everything for you. From signing up for an account to filling out all profile information on as many as 300 different social media sites. KnowEm keeps an eye on the most popular sites such as Facebook and Twitter, but also tracks the rising (and falling) stars in the social media revolution — so you never have to worry about one of your profiles being “wasted” on a site that is losing its relevance. You can even pick and choose the sites that will benefit your business best, which is particularly helpful if you deal in a niche market.
Someone else has your name? KnowEm has methods to obtain the names if someone else is has grabbed it. The company has already helped other businesses reserve more than 350,000 profiles and discovered more than 25,000 issues of stolen or misrepresented brands, usernames or trademarked terms. KnowEm can also help guide you through the process of contacting the websites’ managers and getting those brand items released back to you, putting your company’s public image back into your hands.
With KnowEm, you can make sure that you are the figure behind the social media accounts that bear your company’s name and represents the brand you’ve worked so hard to maintain.
