“The goal of social media is to turn customers into a volunteer marketing army,” opines the team at Impact PR, and they say that being where your target market is has never been more vital as you reach out to socialise and inspire your audience. The growing use of social media to engage, inform and entertain has meant that businesses increasingly are using these platforms to reach the eye and ear of their consumers.

With Google now placing more emphasis on Facebook and Twitter content, these sites can be used to get your message to national and international communities faster. Social networking websites are also a relevant source of up-to-date information, and are a popular point of reference to learn about the latest breaking news and stories. Businesses can take advantage of this trend by using these online media channels to launch products, keep consumers informed and link to their company website. Any of the top social media firms or social media marketing companies may be able to help achieve this.

Statistics indicate that a well-run social media campaign can increase brand recognition, improve a company image, and even increase revenue and web traffic, with less cost than other marketing campaigns. In addition, the creation of social sites designed specifically for certain industries, as well as those designed to offer more professional content, businesses are finding many avenues for promotion using social media. In an era where businesses are expected to provide more transparency to consumers, social media is one of the best ways to interact with customers, gaining feedback from them and offering them insight into your company.

Social media firms are no longer ‘nice to have’ but are an integral part of many businesses now. Most likely you have a social presence of some kind; the question is: Are you getting results?
