Hi folks,

How do you define social media? Here is a suggestion:
"Social media marketing is an interdisciplinary and cross-functional concept that uses social media (often in combination with other communications channels) to achieve organizational goals by creating value for stakeholders. On a strategic level, social media marketing covers an organization’s decisions about social media marketing scope (ranging from defenders to explorers), culture (ranging from conservatism to modernism), structure (ranging from hierarchies to networks), and governance (ranging from autocracy to anarchy)." (Source of the definition)

Any thoughts/comments?

    Glad to read different definitions by each individual. However, apart from just using it only as a brand and product awareness platform, we can also utilize this powerful platform to get closure to your audience, personalize their experience, consult them, etc.
