Social Media For Businesses

[royal]

Hi Everybody,
Social media combines the power of viral marketing and networking to provide substantial benefits to businesses that are savvy enough to capitalize on these consumer-oriented platforms. In fact, companies and individuals that don't interact with their consumer base via social media are likely to fall behind in sales and market share and eventually be viewed as obsolete. This means that effectively utilizing social media for business purposes could mean the difference between a business that dominates its competition and one that flounders and fails. The following are four major benefits that can be realized with effective use of social media.

1. Sharing and Viral Marketing

2. Search Engine Optimization

3. Online Reputation Management

4. Brand Awareness & Brand Loyalty

1 in 2 marketers declares that social media has helped to (1) generate qualified leads and (2) sell products/services – both contributing to revenue growth. As we have previously mentioned that getting buy-in from senior management is the second biggest obstacle toward social media marketing, these statistics will be useful for marketers to strengthen their arguments.

An astonishing 85% of the marketers surveyed have also indicated that social media has generated exposure for their business.
