THE PEOPLE is INTERNET= And the internet can’t exist without people. The market is people Pre 2007- maintstream media controls majority of influence, credibility and exposure and now the futur Post 2007: Creators of Social Media begin to enjoy increased visibility, credibility and audience exposure. Is this some kind of joke? No it is not? It is happening right now. What will you do if you were given 500 bucks and you are told to buy a product that you never heard of at all? You Google!, you ask questions in forum to strangers, you read review of the internet because you know that they are HONEST opinions and NOT PAID OPINIONS. They are COMMENT/REMARKS and NOT ADVERTISING!!!
Many people are stuck in where they are. By spending minutes a day to brainstorm and some time on the weekends to blog about your passion and network, you will never know when opportunity knocks on your door and you may get noticed to do something you really like doing. There is always something better out there, you will need to have the drive to want it and stand out from the crowd.
If you have YES for most of the answers to the above questions, you may be no better than a zombie.
Faced with too much choice, too much media, too much marketing, consumers are effectively, filtering or actively rejecting the onslaught. Through sharing and interaction, you can build a following that will help promote your products and services.
