Social Media is the newest way to get the word out. All of the big companies that can afford a Public Relations office are dedicated to it, even increasing their social media budgets as their overall marketing budgets decrease. Here is what they know:
- 86% of US businesses have Facebook fan pages
- New media contact with companies and brands fosters goodwill in a majority of users, with at least seven in 10 respondents reporting positive impressions, stronger connections and a greater willingness to engage with the company
- Brands with the highest social media activity increased revenues by as much as 18%
- Facebook is the fourth most visited site in the world
- 75% of US online adults are active online social participators
- "To be successful, you need to shift your mindset from social media to social strategy."
