We are also using some of the social media tools to put a human face behind the business - we have a Facebook fan page, a Twitter account, a blog, Youtube channel, and a Scribd account. At this stage probably Twitter is the most efficient media as it provides fast and effective feedback from customers. We can directly reply to their inquiries and even attract potential new customers. What I can say as a personal advice for anyone getting into the social media for business purposes is that if you want to be successful, you should devote time. Monitoring, replying to customers and fostering the feedback, being up to date with your business trends is not an easy task and requires the most precious and scarce resource - your time. It's good to know this before jumping into the social media ocean :) Good luck! Great post, James!
