Confessions of a late users of social media

Written by Jill Manty · August 22, 2010

I have a secret. For someone who writes a lot about social media, I am not usually an early adopter. I don't know whether this is because I really had no natural fit such as mobile phones, to platforms such as Twitter and FourSquare. Or because I am addicted to technologies, so I'm trying to avoid so no more time out of my day long as possible, so that you suck.But the truth is George pursued me for about a year to Facebook join.(And I am not even to mention how long it took for me to "get blogging".)

I did not want to. It was lame. I didn't need it. Why should I? Then I came about 18 months ago.As life I ever without Facebook? and now I think a monumental Miss from undertaking without a Facebook page is! Want to exclude Google to you from the search results?

I use a lot not yet Twitter.Oh, I feed sure our Facebook page, to it, but I leave most of the interaction to George.Allerdings probably coming to an end at some point in the next few months. As soon as I a firm grip on linked in and I need that four square - for specific clients. But Twitter of the next.

So, why I say all this? because I want you know it's not too late. If you have a Twitter or Facebook account, it's okay. You missed the social-media parade. In fact it is really only started.

For companies it isn't often that beneficial to be an "early adopter".The best time for companies to adopt a technology is around it's peak.It remains training generally easier (and cheaper) at this time.Your customers and potential customers already informed about technology, so you don't have to convince that you want to "like you on Facebook," should you.And there are many people who are already knowledgeable, where sections of the social media can outsource you don't like or have not time to keep up with.

So if you was avoided social media have, some still need tun.Es is very simple and very effective uses of Facebook, Twitter, blogging, linked in and more that will help you make online money and won't keep your company actually ausgeführt.Ich will werden.Also introduced some simple tips and tricks in the coming weeks and months, make sure back often to überprüfen.Aber for now, go sign up for Facebook and Twitter - and take in LinkedIn, while you're at it sind.Lassen a note below below, if you signed up recently, or if you have not yet and let me know what was / is holding back.
