Instant gratification. Seems like that’s all we are focused on these days. Can’t we short cut this learning process? If Facebook and Twitter are free, why do we have to apply any manpower or financial resources to make it work for us? I read all these stories about how companies used social media to generate massive sales. This is just what we need – a distribution channel that costs pennies and provides a sales bonanza.

Houston, we have a problem.

Excellent post. Makes me chuckle now every time I see webinar invites with grandiose claims about expected social media learning. What we need to define are some good learning paths just like good corporations have good orientation programs.

Thanks for your comments.

Social media is just like any other tool in the tool box. @Jeff – you are so right, people really want a magic pill. I think if they compare it to other channels and the learning curve that everything has, it might help to alleviate some of the anxiety.

Very Insightful post Jessica! My advice to everyone is to research which platforms can have the most impact for your business/brand and implement it with COMMITMENT. It is imperative to have a goal as part of your strategy in order to measure ROI. However, there is no right or wrong way on how you go about social media, practice makes all the difference.
