Social Media:
Stop Selling.
Start Helping.
Social media keeps growing in complexity for business owners, marketers, advertisers and public relations professionals seeking to use it to connect with prospective and existing customers.Â
To stay relevant, organisations and individuals need to function like media companies and produce helpful content for their followers. Â
Social media evolves rapidly, and this constant change is influenced by technological developments, increased consumer demands, and competition between platforms.
This requires businesses to be nimble, flexible, strategic and responsive.
