Social Media, is a big buzzword these days, we hear it and see it everywhere. It’s in the news, on the radio and even mixed in with our favorite television programs. The world is becoming more socially interactive every day. If you aren’t using social media marketing for your business it’s time to start, because if you keep ignoring it your competitors are going to leave you in the dust.
Social media marketing is a phrase that’s used to describe marketing techniques used on social networking sites like Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and more recently Pinterest and Instagram.
This method of marketing online has become increasingly popular over the last few years and is fast becoming the go to method for any business that wants to quickly build their brand, attract a never-ending supply of new customers and increase their profits substantially.
What makes this type of marketing so powerful is that it allows businesses to interact with consumers on a personal level. This type of connection makes it possible for them to build a solid relationship based on the marketing principle of Know, Like & Trust (KLT), which translates into; if they Know you, Like you and Trust you they will buy from you.
It holds other benefits as well including giving business owners the ability to tap into the wants and needs of their consumers as well as gain valuable information about their marketplace.
From a consumer’s point of view, it makes the business more real and approachable by allowing an open line of communication where they can ask questions and receive answers.
Many business owners ignore social media marketing because they don’t realize how powerful it can be. Others don’t fully understand how it works and some just think it’s complicated, confusing and not worth their time.
If you fall into one of those categories it’s time to change the way you feel about social media marketing.
Here are few startling social media statistics that might help change your mind:
