- The heavy hitter we all know is FB. 175 million people log on every day.• FB is becoming the main way people keep in touch with each other and organizations they care about, therefore marketers must understand the importance of this tool.

- The goal of marketing in social media is to build and expand an online following. It’s not about explicit advertising.• One way is through fun online personalities, like Helga’s profile on Myspace. She’s funny, engaging, and all about VWs.• No sleazy fake profiles of “real” people that are into your product.
- • aka microblogging, is more concisethan a blog, and more casual than an email• When you start, make sure to go to Twitter’s search engine to see what people say (or haven’t said) about your product• Make sure you participate by following and responding to othersLady Gaga is the #1 followed tweeter now: has 6.5 million followersA good way to start getting a following is to participate, to follow and respond to others, just as you should in the blogosphere.
