Social Media, do you 'get' it?

A couple of weeks ago I wrote about a training session being offered through Tots to Travel with leading Social Media expert Karen Skidmore, hope some of you were able to catch it.  It was a good one with great advice for those starting out and those who are already using it, but not really sure how to do it effectively.

If you think Social Media is just for the kids to Tweet and watch silly videos on You Tube, you are very wrong.  It is not the latest thing, it is THE thing which will only keep growing!

A few months ago I posted a video regarding the power of social media, but Im sure the numbers are now out of date.  But just gives an idea of the power that these platforms can have for a business and can give access to your target market.

Some interesting things that came from this webinar were:

• 1 Billion people use social networks, most using a variety but the main ones remain Facebook, Twitter, Youtube and Linked In.

• The average Facebook session lasts 37 minutes

• 400 million use Facebook daily

• The largest growth of users of Social Media are Women aged 30 to 45!

Cant you afford to miss out!  If you need advice or help, I can help, just ask.
