The first question of social media marketing is – does it work? A lot of companies are now expanding its platform of gaining its presence in social media. Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, MySpace, YouTube are a few of the social media platforms that are out on the world wide web. As a company owner you might question whether those platforms work or not. Do you want to invest the time in being a social tweeter? These platforms are not going to be substituting your current Yellow page ad, magazine presence or radio spot. They are a part of your company’s branding process of broadening your platform and reach for a new or existing clientele. If you have the ability it is suggested that you do add your company to the various social media networks and work your way through the networks of gaining friends, adding tweets and linking to new future prospects via LinkedIn or posting your specials via Twitter.

These free platforms are a great way of adding a presence of your company to a wide range of eyes. As Gary Vaynerchuk, owner of winelibrary.com, who was able to grow his company from 5 million to 50 million via the use of the internet said: “social media is a tool to reach as many eyeballs as you can”. If you are able to reach people through your growth and presence of the free tool of social media, you will be able to gain a market share in branding and a virtual influence of an audience on the internet. Social media marketing is more or less a referral source if you use it right. The platform doesn’t utilize the old-school push and pull technique. Social media is about interaction, social networking and referrals. The future of advertising is being driven by the consumer and not by the advertiser.

Today, generation Y is mainly using the internet to search for information. These young individuals utilize social media networks and the internet in making future purchase decisions. As many eyeballs and people your company can reach the better you reach and influence will be of branding you company in today’s competitive socially driven market place. And in order to keep your presence you should be considering adding Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, MySpace and other social media network platforms to your company’s marketing agenda on top of your Yellowpage ad.
