Why?
• 70 percent of the buying process in a complex sale is already
complete before clients are willing to talk with a sales person.
• Along with Google searches for product information, buyers
and prospective clients are also searching for and
encountering information inside of social networks.
• In addition they are increasingly asking their peers for
recommendations and advice across social media.
• Social media has changed negative and positive impact to the
brand and the speed at which that impact can spread to
others, including media outlets.
