June 2011 LinkedIn Poll: What Social Media or Social Networking site has performed best for you so far?
For June 2011, I chose this question for my LinkedIn Poll: What Social Media or Social Networking site has performed best for you so far?
For so many businesses figuring out the healthy balance of attention to which Social Media or Social Networking site is almost a roadblock in itself. For some Twitter is amazing lead generating tool. For some it’s a complete waste of time. Same thing goes for Facebook and LinkedIn and other networks. Each Social Media outlet has it’s own personality and followers there within. The culture and behavior between networks varies quite a bit.
The best advice would be to see how people communicate within a certain network. Once you have a better understanding of HOW others communicate in a particular network you can look at your business and figure out how you want to be perceived to each of these outlets. (Note: Just because you blast your information to somewhere doesn’t mean it’s going to be received in the desired way.)
Context and content are always king.
As a Social Media Consultant, it’s paramount for me to understand that balance of attention and performance. We all have finite time to work on something; might as well make it worth it, right?

Though I have profiles on FB and LinkedIn and use them regularly, Twitter is my poison. Brands connecting with me on twitter and LinkedIn will get more of my attention. I also have a client who has a better response on LinkedIn. And another who finds that FB works better for him. It all depends on where your clients’ customers are hanging out the most. Excellent post Andrew.
