Editor's Notes
Now that was a huge number, wasn’t it?Well here is what the average LinkedIn professional looks like <CLICK> That tells us that your target market is out in the open, ready to be engagedReplace male by decision maker and portoflio over 250k
And then there’s Facebook. Any guess as to how many people are now members? <CLICK> That’s right: a half a billion people.
Every day, more than 830 THOUSAND people join Facebook. Every day, I’ve been told, they add three floors of data center space. Never before in history have so many people joined one website. <CLICK>And to put things into perspective, imagine every single man, woman and child in San Francisco joining Facebook each day. That is a hugely significant number.
On the consumer side, how does that help yourbusiness? It turns out that people are more likely to buy if they are engaged within social sites. <CLICK> 50% reported this year that they are more likely to buy from you if you live where they live online. During the greatest recession of our lives, this is a significant number.
