Social Media is still a new con­cept to many com­pa­nies and there are still many peo­ple not con­vinced that it can work for them. Then there are com­pa­nies that have embraced it and man­age­ment are enthu­si­as­tic and totally into Social Media. This arti­cle is aimed at peo­ple who have dis­cov­ered social media and believe that it can work for their com­pany, but their man­age­ment are either less than enthu­si­as­tic or per­haps almost in the dark about social media.

The first and prob­a­bly the most impor­tant thing to be able to con­vince man­age­ment that social media is for your busi­ness is Read more »

Those of us using Social Media know how effec­tive it can be in dri­ving traf­fic to one’s web­site. But, unlike some make out, it does require ongo­ing effort and per­se­ver­ance.

In my pre­vi­ous post about choos­ing between all those other social net­works I high­lighted how many other social net­works there are aside from the main play­ers and link to a num­ber of resources. Weekly, I am invited to join new social net­works or groups or hear about new ones pop­ping up.

You may have heard go where your tar­get mar­ket is, but how do you know whether they are using a par­tic­u­lar social net­work or medium with­out doing expen­sive research? Read more »
