Social media is about s ociology and less about technology. It’s a mashup of new and traditional media that spans across advertising, PR, customer service, marcom, sales, and community relations. Previously the Web was one-sided content – display, presentation and information. Today it’s communication in all directions.
We see FaceBook as a social media community that enables companies to: Establish a more interactive, viral, easy to change brand destination Highlight their existing web site and/or blog Promote a particular product, milestone or event Advertise online in a manner that links to existing online presence Develop personalized experiences to support a brand position Note Business Pages can’t invite fans to join, but groups can send invitations to join Facebook Insights offers graphs that show daily interaction with page Advertising on Facebook is very cost-effective and targeted.
