Do you feel like you are at an all you can eat

Social Media Buffet??

Well, you are….

Just like when you walk up to a buffet, you have to decide do you want a salad and if so which one, fruit and how much of what, meat or pasta, vegetable or starches, bread or dessert/desserts.. It is the same way with the social media venues that are afforded to you today.. Do you want Facebook, Facebook Business Page, Twitter, LinkedIN, LinkedIN Business Page, Flickr, Delicious, Scribd, YouTube, or try the latest media on the scene ~ OR maybe a little of everything ~OR maybe you are so confused you have no idea what you want or need.

Like the buffet when you paid for your meal it included anything you choose to add to your plate and it is all included..  Once you have worked with a coach, or strategist, then most everything you choose is included in your social media buffet.  Do you want it all? Do you it need it all?  Can you handle it all?

Free doesn’t help when you are so confused.  Using social media wrong can be very detrimental to your business.  Learn the right way to Market your specific business.
