Social Media Campaign FAQs to Help Get You Started

Q: Social media – why and for how long?

A: Social media is an easy and effective way to share information, listen to your customers and gather valuable information on their thoughts about your products or services. How should you use it in an advertising campaign? Think differently. Most people develop campaigns and distribute the messaging for that campaign through traditional media. In the traditional model, each campaign has a definitive start and stop date. With social media, there’s no need for a stop date.

I don’t know about the rest of you, but to me, change can often feel quite uncomfortable. To a creature of habit, such as myself, a change in something as seemingly trivial as my morning routine tends to throw off my entire day. And with a new baby in my home, all bets are off.

My friends and family now keep up-to-date by visiting the family blog rather than by picking up a phone. I get diaper coupons through my Facebook page instead of via snail mail. I read product reviews not on the actual product’s webpage but on personal websites.

So when I viewed the following YouTube video while sitting in a client meeting, I can’t say I was terribly surprised by the statistics. It only leaves me with one question: Are you up for the challenge of change?
