@amy Super post. I think businesses should embrace social media, but with a grain of salt. Right now it's integral to adopt this level-playingfield communication but nobody can be sure what's to come in the future.

Thanks for the great post. To me social media marketing is so dependent on the policy changes i.e. the recent change of Facebook Promotion terms. However, the power of it is undoubted and it will only grow more phenomenal.

For Malaysia, my observation tells that many are still wearing the hat of old marketing while adopting social media marketing in their marketing mix, so it is interesting to watch the changes.

Rowdyboy makes a great point, and as someone who writes resumes, I have already started encouraging my job-hunting customers to get a few of these skills under their belt. My father always preached that someone's Perception becomes their reality, whether or not it's correct, and right now many small business owners perceive that they need to jump on the SM bandwagon. This is a great opportunity for those who jumped in earlier.

Misty,
It is an exciting time for sure! I like what you said about engaging readers on a daily basis. That is something that many find difficult because it is time consuming. I have noticed that when I make my social media activities a habit, something I partake in daily, I get momentum and I am much more consistent. Thanks for the reminder of the importance of showing up.

I love your term “absolute coolness” to illustrate your view of social media. Perfect :-) I could not have said it better myself!

The people I come across who see social media as too time consuming and too much trouble are also those that tend to want to outsource the majority of it. Too much outsourcing and your message can get lost in translation. I hope we can get to a point where social media tools are even more streamlined to save us time and resources and therefore companies outsource their social media communications less. I am curious to see what the coming year will bring!
