Understanding Social Media
The paradigm has shifted and with it came business marketing innovations. The catalyst for the change is social media and the permanent changes in media consumption. More editorial based content has been replaced by community-based, user-generated contents, such as Facebook, Twitter, and blogs. That shift in consumption has made social media the new language of all business from this point forward.
Social media (network) marketing is the most recent component of the integrated marketing communication plans. The use of social media as a marketing and promotional tool and strategy is becoming more and more popular with businesses because it can be an extremely effective way to promote products and services to a targeted audience. Organizations can receive direct real-time feedback from their customers and targeted market. Websites can function as a static billboard to promote products, services, or ideas – but social media opens up a dynamic dialogue with your audience, allowing for interaction and personal connection.
