Social media has changed the way people do business, created jobs, and the way people interact.
- How social media has changed the way people do business
Every brand and business is on social media. It creates a community where your customers can directly interact with you. It is a great way for you to alert customers about new products or train your customers on new features.
- How social media has created jobs
So many jobs have been created to manage online communities. Social media is a BIG deal to businesses with a large following because they get hundreds if not thousands of messages, comments, and likes a day. A large social media no-no is not responding to these inquires in a timely manner, so that is where the community managers, social media managers, or marketing teams come in.
- How social media has changed the way people interact
I know you have heard stories of how a long-lost family member was found on social media. It’s no surprise, since Facebook alone connects millions of people. When I’m planning an event or outing with friends, it is so much easier to message people through Facebook rather than a phone call. Further, video chatting has allowed for face-to-face interactions over long distances. With all the communication channels available people have no excuse but to use them to connect.
