Social media is trendy and effective (relatively speaking, of course) and it seems to me as if companies are jumping on the SMM bandwagon without truly evaluating why social media is a tool they want to integrate into their marketing strategy or even how effective it will be in targeting the proper audience. It's important that organizations ask these questions before jumping into social media, and that they listen to their competitors and the marketplace to adequately gauge how useful social media can be to furthering the company brand.

I bought them to get a better outcome around the house. I am now presented with all of the social marketing tools sitting on the internet shelves. I can't imagine not picking-up and using one or two for a better business outcome. I didn't start out competent with the table saw, but after experimenting and seeking some advice, I now feel confident getting my hands into the tool. Likewise, Facebook is my current table saw learning experience. I will go to the shed for Twitter next. I have a shed full of tools that I use when I do home improvement projects.
