Social media has evolved from being primarily used as an entertainment-based platform to a medium connecting brands to consumers across every vertical. In a social world full of calls to action, mission statements, marketing messages and brand promotion, it’s easy to make it more about the brand and less about the consumer.

-Online tactics to help your target audience recognize your services can fill a void and meet a need.
-Best ways to use apps and social channels to establish yourself or your community as a social helper!
