Too Busy for Social Media?
Social media is ubiquitous in today's world – with over 1 billion Facebook users and more than 500 million Twitter accounts, you'd be hard pressed to find someone without any social media profiles; it is also very common for people to have three or more accounts across the various channels. LinkedIn, the professional version of Facebook, has become more prominent as a networking, recruitment and marketing channel, and with most business having at least a Facebook presence it's a marketing channel that few can afford to ignore.
On the surface, setting up a Facebook profile and adding a few photos and some of the copy from your website seems like an easy enough proposal, but where many attempts to engage with social media fail is when the time comes to post something.What do you post? Should you go all out with the heavy handed sales tactics and calls to action?Are you looking to use social media as a communications channel or not? Do you want people to leave reviews and posts or not? Once you scratch the surface it becomes clear there's a lot more to social media marketing than meets the eye and this puts people off, thinking it might grow into an unwieldy beast that they just don't have time for.
