‘What are you doing for others?’ through the power of social media.
For this Weekend I urge you to reflect and ask yourself, what have you done for others with no expectations? This week has been a heck of a sick week for me. Have been down with fever and a sore back and yet my world has been filled with social media and how to get back up on my two feet to get things moving. When i visited the Chiro this week for a few sessions we spoke about social media and what i do. When he heard Social Media the conversation went on and on about
Why as a business you need that Facebook Page, don’t laugh I’m serious
What's the point of having a facebook page you may ask. In social media everyone keeps harping about how you need to have that facebook page. You have gone ahead and created one but there is no one buzzing around it. I know the frustration and I sympathize with you. It's all ok for me to sit in my home office and talk about all the wow factors that Dell has been able to achieve with their page or how Coco Cola was able to do it. How do you go about creating that same
How to Measure Social Media ROI – It can be a mission
These days i have been a bit out of action as i have thinking on how to measure return on investment within the social media realm. Or should I say The Return on Ignorance (ROI). Sorry that's me just thinking out loud. It's a mission as its not that straight forward. Many CRM applications are working to bridge this gap but in the mean time how to you measure returns. I actually feel bad for corporates who have a legacy based CRM application because they have a challenge now in front of them to measure their marketing

Social media is no more a buzz word. It's just business as usual for most companies especially those who have embraced social media. But in all this social media world people have gotten into the rat race of competition for fans, followers. Most companies judge their return on Investment based on the huge number of followers or fans. Let me get this straight to you. This is absolutely not the way to go about social media.

Are you being a follower for the heck of it or are you following quality?
When i commenced my journey on twitter I would feel really bad not to follow someone especially when they are following me. Social Media services and consultancy is getting to be a complete mess in some instances.

It would be annoying but I was in the process of learning the game. I was confused why i got followers who practically followed me for the heck of it and i
Will you get paid to be a friend?
In today's busy world how many of us actually have our true friends near us when we need them? How many of us take time out to nurture a relationship and grow this into a friendship? I believe friendship is and will always be sacred in my books. Its a bond that you nurture and grow over time. It's not a transaction.

During this time however we don't think of taking time out for our friends or for anyone we come across. I
Endorsements and recommendations are they worth it? Does that make you the person you are?
Ever day that passes by i aim at doing less and less of the normal corporate business day in and day out tasks.My typical day lately has been writing a post, managing social media campaigns, automating some of my processes, chatting online with friends via IM, facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, sms and of course meeting with people.

What happens to your online identity after you die?
I know it’s not pleasant to think of such a crazy thought but all of us plan our offline will, we all take life insurance, but we don’t think about the impact our social profiles would have on our next generation. Yesterday was a sad day for me as one of my friend’s dad passed away. He was loved by all and he did everything in his power to be a good family man.
