Reply Tamar Weinberg December 17, 2009 at 11:26 pm Janie, I’m not entirely sure – I think it really depends on email marketing tools. My focus is more on the humanness of the business versus the tools of the trade. The tools help, but at the end of the day, it’s about the relationships.

They hear about tools, put forth a miserable effort, and are either too busy or just lazy. With social media, an abundance of resources are at your fingertips. However, without a successful plan and any adequate preparation, your social media efforts will fail. Just do it while giving back to the community as well.

Social media connections are those I know through a variety of online forums, the blogosphere, Twitter, and the like (but I generally don’t befriend someone immediately; I still give it time). LinkedIn is a industry tool. I started with LinkedIn and while it is a great tool like you said, Facebook is way more fun.
