The Social Life of Facebook

Your customers are smart, they’re connected and today they’re part of your sales team.  Thank you social media!  The average American spends 12 hours a week online – that’s close to two hours a day.  They’ve  tripled the time they spend on Facebook since August 2008.  And here’s the upshot for boutique brands and stores: fans can get a homepage news feed from a brand.  This means the brand can go to the consumer as opposed to hoping the remembers to visit them online.  Just imagine your customers becoming a fan of  your brand on Facebook.   Your company (brand) then becomes like a personal friend on their home page.  Now you can share compelling content with them and keep them engaged over time.  You just made them part of your sales team.
