Wondering if investing in social media marketing is
valuable? This video may influence your thinking. You see, social media has
proven to be far more complex than simply posting and hoping to get a lead.
Social media, which facilitates social influence, is extremely powerful and
here is why.
When we engage in social media, those we are connected to
are our connections. Generally speaking, our connections are people we know, do
business with or have some reason to be connected to – there is some common
ground.
Our connections also have connections, those are our second
connections. If we have common ground with our connections then it is likely
that there is some common ground with a large percentage of our connections’
connections. Now the connections of our second connections are our third
connections and, while the bridge is now wider, these connections are still
relevant.
Someone who likes something you have shared may influence
and thus expose someone in their network to you. Look at new linking abilities
on Facebook - now when you post a listing to a real estate group for example,
another person who thinks one of their connections may be interested can type
their friend’s name into the comment, raising awareness of the listing to their
friend.
This TED video is a very cool share that discusses, at a
very high level, just how much influence exists through social media. We hope
you enjoy.
