Social Media Myths - Social Media is Nothing But a Bunch of Carnival Barkers

Social Media Myths - Social Media is Nothing But a Bunch of Carnival Barkers

On the surface, it may seem like social media is a bunch of people with
bullhorns shouting back and forth at each other. But if you know what you're
doing, social media can be a very effective and profitable bullhorn.

For example, contests, sweepstakes and giveaways are a great hook and can be
very effective when used in conjunction with social media. Want to know what
else is very effective? Great content. If you have a great article or video
on your website that has educational and/or entertainment value and you
share it with others on Facebook, Twitter or LinkedIn, it has the potential
of becoming viral and can give you the kind of valuable exposure money just
can't buy.

If you have any questions or comments please contact me.
