Social Media Strategy That Work: Facebook, Google Plus, Twit

Many small business owners are overwhelmed with social media channels because there are so many of them, and usually only one person is doing all the marketing - you - the business owner.

If you wonder why it seems like social media keeps changing - wonder no more - social media continues to change. Unfortunately, getting people to “LIKE” your business Page does not imply that they like your services, nor that they will buy from you.

How do you keep up with all the changes? How do you know where to spend your time, energy and money?

Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIN - so many social media platforms but which one should you use? Which one will drive results?
