All excellent tips on how you use social media effectively. Unfortunately, most use it to push their message and say it doesn't working after 3-6 months. Social takes time to build and it great for customer retention.

I tried leaving a comment on the post (3 time), but your spam filter caught it for some reason?

Rieva: Good tips. I would add: ask yourself the "why" question. Why should our co. become involved in social media activities in the first place?
