		<description><![CDATA[ Businesses, especially small businesses, need to develop  a successful social media strategy that takes in to account the different social media platform technologies and how each fits into the business-branding process and the goals and mission of the businesses. Said strategy has to factor in what a business wants to accomplish  and what role the strategy itself  will play in the overall marketing plan of a business.  If you are skeptical about investing the time it will take to develop a well-planned social media strategy, remember:  if a business doesn’t plan, it plans to fail -- jumping into social media just because it is hip will not do a business any favors]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In my previous posts, I introduced social media, its networks and channels, how it changed the face of marketing as we know it. In this post I will entertain the idea on why and how businesses should use social media as part of their marketing planning. There are still a lot of businesses fighting social media being skeptical about its application and try to find any excuses to why not to use it.  The most common excuses (please let me know if you hear anymore so I can add them to the list) we “social media strategists” may hear:]]></description>

Day after day, email is used less as we communicate increasingly through social media networks, blogs or even through our beloved blackberries.The face of marketing as we know it has probably changed forever.  ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I meet people either in business meetings or in my personal life that tell me how excited they are on using social media, how much fun they have blogging - though they are the only reader of their blog – or that they use Twitter to let people know what they are getting for lunch, or on Facebook talking to their friends.   They assume simply being on these platforms means they "leverage" social media! ]]></description>
