SOCIAL MEDIA AS A TOOL FOR WEALTH CREATION

Many businesses (both online and offline) failed to cope in their respective fields simply because they were unable to keep up with the pace of the vast changes in technology. According to William J. Clinton,  “its turns out that advancing equal opportunity and economic empowerment is both morally right and good economics, because discrimination, poverty and ignorance restrict growth, while investment, education, infrastructure and scientific and technological research increase it, creating more good jobs and new wealth for all of us”.  Focusing on technology, we shall know what it means to harness the power of using the social media as a tool to increase our earning ability in the business environment.

You are not just hearing for the first time that the world is or has become a global village where people rely more on the internet to get their products and services to their customers at a point in time. Gone are those days when you have to meet your customers one on one or as a group to advertise and sell your products. You will agree with me that it was stressful as at then but for the timely intervention of the world wide web, the market has been taken online to meet millions of ready customers even at a low cost and with little or no stress.

Its was this introduction that brought about social media which is a more vital tool for meeting with your buyers through online sales and adverts.  “Social isn’t something that you do, instead you have to ‘be’ social”, “social media is your opportunity to reach a massive number of people with transparency, honesty and integrity." Today’s businesses can’t just use social media, instead they have to become social businesses, inside and out and from top to bottom.  You have  to become the most highly recommended organization in your industry to be ahead of your competitors.

Social media like: Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, MySpace and the likes are sure tools to get your business growing continuously and at a faster pace.

I believe you have to be like an avatar (master of all four elements) i.e versatility in the various use of advertising methods and sales method to take your business to a greater heights.

This is to all new and existing business owners (Online and Offline businesses), SOCIAL MEDIA is a paramount issue to be well taken care of, if you want to remain in business and move at the same pace with technology.

There are demands everywhere for your products; to get you products and services delivered fast, explore the use of available social media around.

To your success.
