A year, two years, and even 3 years ago I never would have thought I would be saying this: Get off of Facebook, Twitter and the rest of the fads and start doing business again. For years I’ve been a social media evangelist. Well this week, I killed most, if not all of my social media outlets and began reaching out to human beings via the old telephone, email, and in-house meetings. The results? In two weeks I’ve created more new business than I’ve created in 2 years through social media. Unplug, stop posting online and meet with humans. We are dying for that personal connection again.
I completely agree… But I figured out how to use them
Now I know why you’re eliminating your FB friends. Sayonara social media buddy.
Hey Blake.. just totally deleted my FB for now. Didn’t delete you as a friend. Just took the whole thing down. I’m definitely a social media for business user but my facebook personal page never satisfied that. I have my company’s business page that works well and will obviously maintain it.. it just takes up far less time than the personal stuff. Also, getting out and meeting people is the best remedy for business woes. Far more successful with eye-to-eye contact.
