Jan 9, 2008 by Chris Winfield | Social Networks
Over the holidays I spoke to lots of different people who told me that they want to get more involved in social media in 2008. My first question to them was always: Why? Do you want to get involved because it seems like it’s THE hot thing right now? Or do you want to help your company or clients grow? You need to have goals in mind and focus on the end result in order to be successful.
Social media can be very complex and involved but it can also be broken down into very simple and actionable steps. These steps can have an immediate impact on your businesses bottom line. And that’s what it’s all about.
