Social media is changing how businesses operate in several ways: 1. It allows for small, multi-directional information sharing that people trust more because it comes from friends and contacts they follow. 2. Industries like marketing, communication, and knowledge sharing are particularly suited to social media because the platforms provide large, diverse environments to share information and understand trends. 3. Social media is transforming business models in these industries, shifting power from companies to consumers by allowing user-generated content and real-time sharing of preferences.
