The best social media starting point for a small business? - dreamcon - 06-19-2010 08:00 PM

I saw this question posted in one of my linkedin groups and thought it could be an interesting one for this forum. What would you say is the best social media outlet as a starting point for a small business to launch their social media strategy from?

I would say that it depends on two factors, product and target market. If it is a small business with a product that is targeted at a national market of businesses, Linkedin would be a good place to start as they can seek out and join groups that have the very companies they are targeting as potential clients. If they are targeting consumers in a smaller, regional market then they might want to look at Facebook where you can set up fan pages and advertise to people who are within your target market.

There are a lot of social media sites now. But what works best for me now is Facebook. The number of people doing site marketing through Facebook continues to increase. Since Facebook is the most popular social networking site now, a lot are taking advantage of its popularity to market their business. Twitter is also good but I find Facebook more effective now and LinkedIn is also good.

LinkedIn, twitter and Facebook are famous social media sites but I found Facebook best among them. It is because it has much visitor then all other social media sites.

Well from my side Social media is the best way to introduce our products, services or any thing new that we are providing.

This chart exists in the first place because, when it comes to the web, social is something everyone should be looking in to. The numbers are there, all you have to do is take the next step and get yourself on some of these sites in order to learn what types of social sites work best for you and which don’t.

The small business owners are really tuned in and understand the value of Social Media for their businesses more so than the large companies. The issue is the practicality and implementation of strategies as well as tactics in a timely fashion which will benefit them.
