How does Social Media marketing actually work?

You will have heard about Social Media marketing and the impact that it is having on the success of businesses in recent years. However, you may ask the question “How does Social Media marketing actually work?" As a concept, Social Media marketing can be a little confusing, after all, how can a platform that we use to chat to our friends and family on really produce lucrative results for a business? It’s a brilliant question, and perhaps the answer is a little more obvious than we may think.

Social Media as a concept is booming – in a bid to make the world more open and connected, sites such as Facebook have seen a massive surge in users over recent years. Starting as a relatively small project, Facebook alone now has an estimated 250 million users – and this figure is growing every day. Now, if we think about ‘users’ as ‘potential customers’, that’s a staggering amount of prospects just waiting to be reached, even after demographics and other specifications have been applied to narrow down users to a audience tailored to your exact product or service.

And that’s what Social Media is all about – making your company more visible to a wider audience, it allows you to reach potential customers and provides a platform for them to find you. So, does Social Media marketing work? – the answer has to be a definite yes, with the right profile and great techniques it is possible to effectively market your company using new Social Media marketing technologies and see your profits soar as a result.
