WHAT IS SOCIAL MEDIA?

A LEARNING AND CONTRIBUTING PLATFORM

Social Media describes the tools and platforms available to relationship market online.  We are commonly asked what social media is and how it can work for small business owners.

THE SHORT ANSWER

Social Media is the use of interactive forums to "interact" with your clients and prospects.  It is a business promotion tool but not in the traditional sense.  Social media examples are Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, FriendFeed, LinkedIn, industry forums etc.  These social media outlets are designed to help business owners become a valuable member of a community where a demonstration of expertise can help members of that community with information and advice.   Social Media marketing is a learning and contributing forum - not a traditional "push" marketing venue.

People still buy from who they know..... online or offline.
