Social Media

Social media is developing at a phenomenal rate. The staggering amount of users that social networking sites have attracted in the last year-Facebook added over 200 million users-has completely eclipsed the time it took radio, TV and the internet to accomplish even a quarter of that.

This has major implications. More specifically this has major implications for your business and your relationships with customers. Social media now gives you the platform to branch out to more of your customers and your prospective customers and strike up a dialogue. Depending on where your audience place themselves, as a business, you need to get into their space, and that space is now a number of hugely prominent social networking sites.

Forward-thinking and enterprising organisations are now tapping into social media in a big way and are experiencing some enlightening results. They have realised that by connecting with people and sharing thoughts about their brands and their industry, more and more relationships are being formed and nurtured, which are turning into professional contacts and clients. After all, you would rather do business with someone you know and find interesting.

Despite all of this very apparent hype and evidence of social media’s impact less than 5% of companies in the UK are actually using it. This could be for many reasons, some of the more common ones include an uncertainty about what it is, how it works and whether it will be worth while. The most common reason for bypassing this new communicative shift, is time.
