Go with social media to further your business

I have just been speaking to an acquaintance of mine who runs his own Events Planning business. He told me that business has been slower than usual, and more customers than normal are leaving bookings until the last minute. He also said that other people in the industry are experiencing exactly the same thing.

I guess it's not a surprise, is it? In times of economic hardship, the frills have to give first as people strive to pay for the essentials.

Paul went on to say that he had set up a facebook group and a twitter page for his business and, lo, within hours he had had an enquiry from these.

It demonstrates the importance of social media in modern times. If you don't go with that flow, you'll be left washed up by the tide.
