WHY SHOULD EVERY BUSINESS IN THIS ERA NEED TO ACT AS A MEDIA COMPANY?| Sai Sathish

The increasing prominence of social media in the business world is evident, and this is what made me pen down this piece of information out to the world.
Businesses today, whether they have taken the leap yet or not, realize that social media is important. Strong social media and online presence are crucial, as most of the people all across the planet are now active internet users.  Social media puts the business out to the world, makes to reach out to your target audience.
·         64% of B2B businesses have rated social media as the second most important factor when searching for a company to do business with; strong website content was rated the most important factor with 82% of the votes.
·         75% of B2B buyers from across the world expect to use social media in future purchasing processes; meanwhile, one-third of all global B2B buyers are already using social media to engage with their vendors.
·         77% of buyers from B2B businesses have confirmed that they are more likely to purchase from a company whose CEO has an active social media account.






LET’S TALK ABOUT SOCIAL MEDIA WORKING FOR BUSINESSES.
Gone are the days of someone calling their friends to find a local plumber, florist, a trust-worthy lawyer or doctor. Gone are the days when you’d pick up your yellow pages and find the largest ad to call. These days everything is done online. We search reviews for companies, read their employee bios, rate their services and tell all of our friends about it on Facebook, Twitter, Yelp!, YouTube, Angie’s List, Google Plus and others.
So let’s say that I loved eating at a local pizza joint, or I just bought an amazing product that I just can’t live without and want to tell my Facebook friends. Within seconds from my smartphone, iPad, or computer I can let thousands of people know about my experience. Then if just one of those friends happens to “Like” my post – they blast my comment over to all of their thousands of friends and so forth and so on… You can see how quickly something could go viral.
SO WHY IS SOCIAL MEDIA REALLY IMPORTANT FOR MY WEBSITE?
When folks log onto search engines (Google, Yahoo, Bing, etc) to find a product, review or business – the results appear based on a quite a few different factors. Several of these major factors are addressed with Social Media. Current Customer Reviews, Social Interaction, Fresh Content, and Backlinks are just a few of these factors that can drastically transform your website’s traffic. And the best thing about this is that it’s not just traffic numbers – these will be actual customers looking for your exact service or product.
Social Media is also important for your website because it shows these search engines that you care about being up-to-date and about interacting with people. It shows that you care about extending your website’s content to the possibility of thousands. It shows that you want to know your customers’ feedback and reviews. It also shows that your website is networked on multiple platforms (depending on how many of these social media tools you use).
