The importance for business to engage in social networking has never been greater than it is today. We have embarked on historical times creating opportunities that are sure to have an amazing impact on your business messages, products, services and brands.
Social networking sites such as Facebook, Twitter and YouTube are now catering to businesses like never before and new business focused social networking sites are emerging all the time. Software developers and businesses are incredibly motivated to take advantage of this highly lucrative market space, and they are doing so with passion and vengeance! So where does all of this influence lead us? Much of the outcome is unknown, yet it can be predicted that results will be growth and success for the businesses who choose to engage. The reason we can make this prediction is because there are a few things that we know for sure.
- The Internet and Social Media is in its infancy
- Both will Change, Evolve and Grow
- And both are here to stay!
We have recently become witness to a rapid shift in the effectiveness of traditional marketing methods. For example, we once had to sit through commercials while watching television shows, but now with the use of a PVR we can choose to record our programming and skip past commercials entirely. Do any of these messages get heard anymore? Do they have the impact that they used to?
With the convenience and influence of mobile devices, computers and the Internet, it is impossible to ignore the fact we have had a major shift in the way we interact and communicate in society. Social Networking has been born from this “shift of the times” and has since been the craze amongst younger generations. We are now seeing the older generations adopt and embrace this media and they now represent the fastest growing population using social networking. The prolific nature of social networking is the result of the necessity to engage with friends, family and communities. This carries an addictive quality that makes it fun and interesting to learn and use; therefore it is welcomed and incorporated into our busy lives.
We can no longer ignore or deny that social media and social networking play a major role in how we communicate today. The doors are now wide open for the next major wave of engagement in social networking….business!….and it will be massive!
