What is social media?
Facebook, LinkedIn & Twitter make up the social media trinity. Please don’t tell Google Plus I said this.
Who’s using social media?
The fastest growing segment of US Facebook users are people over the age of 65. When Grandma gets on Facebook all bets are off.
People: guys, gals, kids, grandparents, professionals, biz owners, teenagers
Organizations: corporations, non-profits, government agencies, the media
Facebook – the social giant
With 1 billion users,if FB were a country,it would be the 3rd
largest behind onlyChina and India
Everyone wants to know
Who will be the next Facebook?
Let’s Talk About It…
7 Rules of Social Media 4 Types of Media The Death of PR
Rule #1 – you can’t fake it
“If you don’t love social media, you suck at social media.”
@JayBaer
Rule #2 – the Internet doesn’t forget
“It takes 1,000 tweets to build a reputation, and one to ruin it.”
@UnMarketing
Rule # 3– social is no quick fix
“You don't need a Facebook strategy. You need a marketing strategy.”
@JonFMoss
Rule #4 – social is serious business
"Don't cheese it up. People's bullshit radars are insane. Marketing is about to get really, really hard. If you're just doing social media to keep up with the Joneses - don't."
@GaryVee
Rule #5 – social is not a wonder drug
“Social media can't fix your company. If your product or service sucks, social media will help you go out of business faster.”

Rule #6 – barriers have been removed
“Before the Internet, you hadto actually accomplishsomething to be acelebrity. Today, anybodycan drum up some attentionfor themselves by creatingcontent that virally moves
throughthe social web.”
