Social Media Experience???

I was looking at a job postings board the other day in my hometown, trying to gauge what industries are doing well in my local area for an article on a blog I write, when I noticed a trend. There was a job opening for a $100,000/year Program Administrator and there was a job opening for a $25,000/year Administrative Assistant and both listed "experience with social media sites" as one of the required job skills. I dug around further and almost every non-trade job listing had some sort of reference to social media! Social media skills are becoming the skills to have.

These are the trends that led me to found 2nd Mouse Media. Social Media is the new media and it is here to stay. It is how we communicate, how we get our news, and how we keep in touch with our friends and our customers. It is the new face of business marketing.

Social Media an Important Part of Modern Business World Says Forbes Magazine

Forbes Magazine has recently posted several articles about the importance of social media in business. The most recent article, offers up several interesting facts including:

• 94% of all businesses with a marketing department used social media as part of their marketing platform
• Almost 60% of marketers are devoting the equivalent of a full work day to social media marketing development and maintenance
• 43% of people aged 20-29 spend more than 10 hours a week on social media sites
• 85% of all businesses that have a dedicated social media platform as part of their marketing strategy reported an increase in their market exposure
• 58% of businesses that have used social media marketing for over 3 years reported an increase in sales over that period

These are statistics that just can not be ignored. Social media is not a fad, and businesses that do not make it a part of their marketing structure will have trouble keeping pace in the modern business world.

Logos

Facebook Titan the "Gmail Killer"

So apparently facebook will be releasing its Titan email application on Monday in order to compete directly with Gmail.  Not sure how I feel about this.  Facebook is king-daddy of social media, but Gmail practically owns the world when it comes to integrated email.  I have been loyal to Gmail, Google docs, Google calendar, iGoogle, and Blogger for several years now and I always recommend it to businesses trying to streamline their email and data handling processes.  I guess we will have to wait and see what is released on Monday.  Until then, a Gmail loyalist I will be!

Working on Logos

The logos for 2nd Mouse Media are currently in the works . . . Stay tuned for a post with the new logos!!!
