Like most people, we are relatively new to social media. While social media is relatively new to the ongoing B2B online discussion, it proving beneficial in a number of ways.
Where else can you go where the discussion group is in the hundreds of millions? If Facebook were a country and its members were its population, it would be the third largest country in the world. Twitter has tens of thousands joining every day and perfecting the skill of meaningful conversation in 140 characters or less. LinkedIn, the de facto B2B social platform continues to grow as well and provides an excellent means of keeping connections up-to-date as well as facilitating excellent birds-of-a-feather discussions through LinkedIn groups.
We want to be in the thick of it and we want to be connected with you. Connect with us on Facebook and LinkedIn and follow us on Twitter and we will be sure to return the favor.
We see these platforms as a great way to not only communicate but share information, develop stronger connections, meet new people with similar interests, and learn from one another.
