Don't Forget The Social Part Of Social Media

The way most people use social media you have to have a following of 100’s of 1,000’s of people to be successful.
Most people treat social media the same way companies use the TV. This worked for decades however, people buying behaviors change every 80 years or so. 

So in order to compete in todays marketplace you have to update the way you sell.

Before television, people sold through relationships. The marketplace was not as competitive as it is today either.
