Social Media In Business [INFOGRAPHIC]

June 14, 2010 | Sarah Chong http://www.penn-olson.com/2010/06/14/social-media-in-business-infographic/

Facebook may be the biggest social-networking site but when it comes to business, Twitter seems to be the favorite; at least among the Fortune Global 100 companies.

A whopping 65% of the Fortune 100 companies, own a Twitter corporate account. On the other hand, about half of the companies own a Facebook page and/or YouTube channel. Blogs are less well received with only one-third adopting content strategy, with a low average of 7 post per month published.

Interestingly, one-fifth of the companies employ all 4 social platforms as part of their social strategy.

There isn’t any hard and fast formula to pick social channels for your business. A guide, if I can call it, is to understand your business needs, constraints, social strategy and audience. Only then, can one make an educated choice.

The most alarming piece of information given by one of the panel members was, "fully 40% of companies surveyed do not have and do not yet plan to publish any internal policies or guidelines" on social media usage within their company. It almost seemed that many leaders (including CIO's) didn't want to be "bothered" by this latest trend --- Social Media --- and maybe, just maybe, think this is a fad that will go away.
