While your business may have seen great success using old fashioned methods of advertising, it’s time for a change.  Ads that stay up for a year or more at a time are boring, dynamic advertising that changes with season, customer feedback and current supplier prices is much more exciting and effective.  As I’m sure you know, keeping a current customer happy and coming back is much more reasonable financially than attracting a new one.  Combine that fact with the fact that word of mouth is the best way to advertise, and you can start to see how social media can really turn things up for your business.

Imagine putting specials up and having customers ‘Like’ or comment on your pages, then that comment showing up on all THEIR friend’s news feeds.  2011 will be the year that social media transforms advertising and interacting with your customers, will you be one of the ones who lead the way or one of the ones that is left behind watching others take off.
