If you’re a business owner and haven’t embraced social media,
it’s time to get onboard.
June 20, 2011
There’s a great presentation about Social Media on YouTube. It presents a series of statistics and insights about the growth and persistence of social media networks and why you must get involved as soon as possible. The video was produced by social media expert Erik Qualman, author of the book Socialnomics.
Here’s a few thought-provoking slides from the presentation:
-
“If Facebook was a country it would be the world’s 3rd largest.”
-
“It took the Internet 4 years to reach 50 million users. Facebook reached 200 million users in less than a year.”
-
“96% of people under the age of 50 have joined a social network.”
-
“78% of consumers trust peer recommendations. Only 14% trust advertisements.”
My favorite part of the presentation is the slide about ROI. It says “The ROI of Social Media is that your business will still exist in 5 years.”
That’s powerful. And true.
We are getting requests from our clients every day asking us to help them get involved with social media. They know they have to operate in the social media space but do not have the expertise, resources or time to do so. That’s why we responded with DIG Social Media Management services. We can help you strategize, develop and implement a social media program customized for your business.
Watch the presentation. You need to get involved today. We can help.
