      Business folk s get the Big Idea 
of social media, but there’s an even bigger

                  GAP
  between the future payof f and today’s 
        real business challenges.

Be There or Be Square?


                                             If your company
                                        is not using social media,
                                         you are simply ignoring
                                        the conversations already
                                            happening online.
