The Power of Social Networking
By Paco Arespacochaga
Anybody who thinks Social Networking sites such as Facebook, Linkedin, Myspace, Twitter and others like it will go away sometime soon are in for the biggest shock of their lives.
Social Networking Sites and Social Media Sites serve a very important purpose, which is the ability to connect the right type of people with other people, products and services. Yes, social media does this so effectively, it would be suicide for an individual and a business owner to not take advantage of it.
News travels almost instantaneously in the social media domain that it is both effective and scary. Come up with the next best invention and in less than 5 minutes, your “followers” or “fans” or “friends roster” know of the news right away. Commit a major blunder and you’re all over the wire in a heartbeat as well.
However, part of the hurdles of why some people refuse to get on with this new medium is because of its learning curve. Well let me tell you that developers of famous social media sites have made sure that their sites will let most of us experience a steep learning curve, which means we learn how to navigate through the site in the least time possible.
If you haven’t started, go ahead and get your feet wet. Try it out! Meet you people and promote your products and services. It might be the next big push you’ve been looking for.
