Generating Business using Social Media platforms As they say, "It's not the size, it's how you use it!" In 2012 there are thousands of social media platforms to choose from but which one will you use for what purpose is the question... do you choose the big platforms because you've heard the names mentioned so many times by so many "experts" that you feel you really should... or do you wait and see what floats past your view finder? The reality is you need to understand the main platforms so you can add them to, or remove them from, your to do list... If you're in the B2B space, looking to find more customers, then a must visit and find out more about site is LinkedIn, of that there is no doubt in my mind. The closer you look to LinkedIn the more you appreciate both its simplicity and its amazing power and potential... truly a business lead generation platform you need to spend some time on. http://www.howtouselinkedin.co.uk But then there are other, newer, cleaner coded platforms that you'll have never heard of. That have been thought through by their creators, designed, coded and ready for the world to engage with but because they are not on everyone's lips, you are unlikely to explore their websites to find out more... unless you are lucky enough to bump into them through a random search... or the strategic use of social media! At the Social Media Business Awards events we find new tools and give them a platform on which to shine... we hope to introduce UK platforms developed by local home grown talent but it is likely that they are shy in coming forward, being British. We'll have to wait for them to show themselves while we celebrate great social media tools we have found that are being a little more vocal... probably US based because they're not that shy when it comes to business and we all could learn from them. Book your seat for our new Social Media Business Awards and get their bright and early for my presentation "Social Media Business Sales Update..." Thank you.
