Social Media is fun. It’s a great way to stay in touch and actually have conversations with friends, former co-workers and colleagues and family around the world. It’s not new anymore. But for business, it’s serious business. Why?
Social Media is a way to share your company’s brand. And more importantly, it IS where your clients and customers are looking for information at any given time 24/7. So you need to be there to have the conversation.
Did you know that there are more than 500-million Facebook users and 50% of them logon every day (according to Facebook statistics)? And 200-million users connect with their mobile devices. Twitter claims to have over 100-million users, while LinkedIn claims 80-million. And according to a 2010 Nielsen report, Social Media is more popular than email.
A new study by the University of Massachusetts finds the fastest-growing corporations have embraced Social Media. And what about the business ROI? Think about it – the Social Media landscape is still relatively new, so no one can guarantee results. But we do know that Social Media is here to stay and mature in its own right. That means YOUR company needs a strategy.
Blog, tweet, friend, share, like, join – all part of communications that’s here for good. Your company’s brand exposure using Social Media, New Media, Mobile Media and Traditional Media needs to be an integrated approach.
