Social Media Matters!

Just some brief statistics from Facebook. 

• More than 750 million active users
• 50% of our active users log on to Facebook in any given day
• Average user has 130 friends
• People spend over 700 billion minutes per month on Facebook

Basically what it all means is that Facebook, like other social networks, have extremely active users.  Getting a profile on one of these sites for yourself or your business can be an important step in building connections with the public.

Getting started is easy, and best of all most social networks are free to use.  It does take a significant time investment to keep your profile or profiles up to date and some companies actually hire this segment of their image out to pros.

In today's market I would say it is vital that you have a profile on at least one social network.
