Managing Your Presence On Many Social Media: A Problem? Not at All!
Lately I have seen messages of people on all kinds of networks saying they can’t manage their presence on all those networks anymore and are leaving some of them because they simply can’t manage it anymore.You can save a lot of time networking if you do it a certain way: the easy way!
Five tools to save time networking while maintaining an effective presence on a large number of Social Media.
What can ordinary small business people learn about the adoption of social media for business purposes from trends in the social media markets such as the recent purchase of FriendFeed by Facebook and the rise of Twitter?
Our “Instant Network” principle might be of significance to your own networking efforts:
The principle is best encaptured in the My Social Media page.
On this page you can choose an activity or subject on the basis of which you can make a selection in a large number of internet clubs and social media which you can log into directly.
But that’s not all: each of the social media has (or will have) a companion Social Media Club in The HOB.Biz as well as The House Of Business or The HOB.Biz facilities on the network itself.
This not only means that we have about twice as many members: it also makes it excessively easy to find a network of people you know wherever you go and instantly be in the know about how to best use and benefit from networks, social media and internet-clubs,and other insider information!
In business school one of the most iconic examples of the failure of a technologically superior product at the hand of a technologically inferior product cited is that of the Philips Video 2000 facing Sony’s VHS system. The reason cited: that Sony was smart enough to make sure thousands of video’s were available for it’s inferior system where Philips paid less attention to distribution and more to technological development. Consequently the VHS system reigned for a decade and the Video 2000 withered away. The one system starts from a top down engineer’s mindset, the other from a bottom up user interest approach. Similarly social media generate huge amounts of content: to each his own, where websites who don’t cater for user interaction have less content and fail to cater to each individual’s taste.
