How consumers digest advertising and make buying decisions has forever been altered by the likes of Facebook, Twitter, Foursquare and LinkedIn. The introduction does not mean there is an expectation (in most cases), to buy now! They will influence the buying decision more than any form of traditional media.

.&# Because helpfulness hasn’t historically been looked at as a marketing objective (tons of great stuff about this umbrella concept in Scott Stratten’s forthcoming new book UnMarketing – buy it ), identifying areas where help could be provided isn’t in the DNA of most companies – yet.

Now, I’m not suggesting Foursquare will ever approach Twitter’s level of ubiquity, much less Facebook’s. Because Foursquare makes very little sense unless you’re in a physical location like a store, restaurant, etc. At least it is for me.

We talk often about what department should lead social media, how to get leadership buy-in for social media, or what technology should be used, and while those are important discussions to have, you should be focused on identifying WHO should be leading the social media initiatives.

Place making social media (Foursquare, Gowalla, et al) will continue to gain traction over the next 18 months. Social media is fueled by passion, and too many companies try to take elements of their company that aren’t passion-worthy, and attempt to build a social media program around it. Im Jay Baer.

Opportunities Via Geography Recently, I was in downtown Flagstaff (where I live) and used Foursquare to check-in at a local restaurant. That type of rifle shot, competitive marketing would be unthinkable in the “real world&# , but it happens every minute of every day on Foursquare. That’s the Opportunity Economy at work.

Ask a newly-minted Foursquare mayor how they feel about it. It’s making social content sharing more fun. Of these trends, the biggest is the embedding of services into online infrastructure, because the line of demarcation between your website and our social networks is going to get very fuzzy over the next few years.

Whether B2B or B2C, customers are buying based on what they need. Some people say to me that social media is not measurable, maybe the waffly stuff is not measurable but if you track if somebody clicks on a special offer in facebook and comes back and buys your product then you know that you are getting revenue from facebook.
