Social media: what?!

Markets are conversations
“A powerful global conversation has begun. Through the
Internet, people are discovering and inventing new ways to
share relevant knowledge with blinding speed. As a direct
result, markets are getting smarter—and getting smarter
faster than most companies.” The Cluetrain Manifesto, 1999
conventional marketing techniques will be obsolete by
the online "conversations" that consumers have and that
companies need to join.

Online vs Offline?
Social media are great, but
where is your audience?
Even if we’re in 2015 it doesn’t
mean that your customers just
want to be reached online.
It’s your business, you should
know where your customers are
and how to hook them.
