Social Media Has Changed The Game

Today LinkedIn announced that you can now use Twitter inside your LinkedIn account. I bring this up not only because that’s a pretty cool feature, but also to talk to you about how times have changed along with the economy…

I recently talked with a friend who has spent the last week working on his resume. Which got me to thinking about how times have changed and how the traditional ways of getting a job and how a business’s marketing strategies MUST change with the times or you will be left behind.

Things like Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn are now your new resumes and you are screaming to the your customers, clients, friends and the rest of the world that either you are the real deal or just another wannabe…

How you act, what you talk about and what kind of value to bring to your friends, connections and followers on these Social Networking sites will determine how your business grows or how it doesn’t.

So I must ask, are you using the new methods of marketing? Or are you going to be one of the many that get left behind because they didn’t want to change?

If you haven’t started using these marketing strategies, that’s okay… It’s not too late. If you need help, we offer training on how to use Social Media tools. If you are already using them, make sure you are using them the right way, the most effective way.

Keep moving forward!
