      <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.tmcnet.com"><img class="mt-image-right" style="float: right; margin: 0 0 20px 20px;" src="http://blog.tmcnet.com/blog/tom-keating/images/tmcnet.gif" alt="tmcnet.gif" width="186" height="80" />TMC</a> has helped multi-million and multi-billion dollar companies build online communities and microsites that have resulted in more sales and a larger marketing presence on the Web. One example is China Telecom <a href="http://www.tmcnet.com/channels/managed-services/">here</a>. Other companies past/present include Digium, Jabra, Microsoft, Packet8, Plantronics, snom, and more. So how does TMC do it?<br /><br />Rich Tehrani <a href="http://blog.tmcnet.com/blog/rich-tehrani/google/building-communities-online-boost-sales-search-and-social-initiatives.html">explains</a>:<br />Over the past decade, hundreds of companies have benefitted from TMC&rsquo;s  Community program, attracting a laser-targeted group of potential  customers who are looking to learn about a specific topic area. TMC  populates these communities with thousands of articles per quarter &ndash;  which in turn attracts millions of interested viewers a year to our  sponsors.
<p>Sponsors can then offer these viewers more information about  themselves &ndash; offer them coupons, a chance to visit them at a trade show  or road show or whatever else they are looking to communicate to this  group.</p>
<p>The most common question I am asked lately is how to build online  communities and moreover companies in many new industries ask constantly  about how TMC can help build these content-generated microsites for  them.</p>
<p>As a result of these requests, we are now making these online  communities available in multiple industries and we have a new free  webinar you can attend titled <strong>&ldquo;Building Communities Online: Reduce  Marketing Spend While Boosting Sales, Search and Social Initiatives&rdquo;  which you can attend on March 30<sup>th</sup>, 2011, from 2:00pm &ndash; 3:00pm EST.</strong></p>
<p>I think you&rsquo;ll find this Webinar quite valuable, as it will cover how  to improve your marketing ROI by integrating results currently driven  by search ads, SEO, social media and thought leadership into one  integrated campaign. The Webinar will also cover:</p>
<ul>
<li>How the concept of      Targeted Marketing has evolved</li>
<li>How to build a      news-generated, search optimized community online</li>
<li>How your Online Community      is more cost-effective, and powerful, than Search Click Ad campaigns</li>
<li>Common reasons why some      Online Communities fail</li>
<li>Why it is essential to      partner with a respected editorial team when building your community</li>
</ul>
