Social Media Marketplace Infographic Torture to Video Heaven

Posted by Michael Hartzell on Sun, May 27, 2012

There is an infographic on Business Insider that will validate your feeling of confusion and distaste for social media marketing. In a growing marketplace, no entrepreneur or small business owner can keep up.

It is time to take the infographic and turn the overwhelming social media marketplace into a video where you can look deeper at the options by category. The category breakdown helps you focus your team for "why" you are using social media to engage potential customers.

Do you want to focus on ecommerce? How about monitoring social media? Watch the video.

When you see something that will help your business, click on "pause" and make notes.

Taking the complex infographic into a simple video slideshow is a big step forward but is it enough?
