- Some of you may already be using social media in your business, and some of you still might be wondering if it really is relevant. We’re going to have a quick look today at just what social media is in the business context, some up-to-date statistics which highlight their popularity amongst individuals, the pros and cons. We’ve got some case studies to share with you too.
- Back to basics for a minute. Even if you’re already using social media, it’s useful to remind ourselves of some of the key features of “social networking”.
- First of all, let’s look at the latest membership and user figures for some of these networks.
- A quick word on Google +. It’s the newest high profile social network, but not yet ready for business users. It is expected that it will launch its business platform soon and that this could potentially give LinkedIn a run for its money. This is what Google says…
- Compare
- A few other interesting facts…
- Note younger generation.
- And finally, just look at how popularFacebook is a website.
- Despite the growth across all demographics, some profiles are not using social media heavily, older age groups for example and B2B – other businesses not use dto using social media in the workplace as a business tool. Ask yourself the question – where are my customers and will they be using any of these?
- It might be free but your time is more precious. A plan is good and beware the enthusiastic start only for your Facbook Page activity to dry up or your Twitter feed to stop dead. It’s not good for your business image if people come to look and see the last update was a year ago.
- If you have a small budget and need results quickly, email marketing, online advertising and other marketing campaigns are quicker and easier to measure in terms of financial return. As yourself if it’s the best use of your resources.
- Trusting employees, not ready to open up to or deal with criticism, employees not ready to be brand advocates. It’s 2 way and should not be used to broadcast without the expectation of response and engagement.
- Give example
