Is Twitter For You/Your Brand? Hmm...

Well Hello There,

This week, I wanted to share an infograph designed by Column Five Media that is a fun way to tell whether or not Twitter is the social media platform for you. The graph looks at Twitter from a personal aspect as well as on a professional/business level. I'll admit, this is just a fun way of looking at the different ways that people can use Twitter to communicate with others in what's known as the Twitterverse.

This week, the topic came up in my social media class whether or not brands should be using social media. How do company execs decide which social media platform to use? Each network is different, so it is very important that professionals find ways to cater to their specific audience and relay messages appropriate to that particular network.

After applying myself and the organization I work for to the infographic, it was obvious that I should be using this tool as a form of communication. I currently work for the campus activities board at the University of North Texas and social media is something we highly depend on in order to engage with our students.

Aside from that (on the personal side of things), I am a journalism student. The fact that Twitter provides instant news updates 24/7...well, you know I'm lovin' that.

Check out the article/graph at the link below and see where you fall. Is Twitter right for you?




Until Next Time...

An Ad Major.
