Is Social Media Marketing Deceptive?

We’re living in the age of the Social Media Marketing Hoax. Making direct money from Twitter, Facebook, and MySpace type sites is extremely rare. It doesn’t work the way many preach.

It’s not that there’s not gobs of money to made using social media, the angle people are taking to market with these sites are wrong. Sure your customers are on these sites. So are your future customers and prospects. The only problem is that they’re on these sites to be social. The last thing they’re trying to do is look at ads and buy things. They’re in the type of mindset that avoids advertising at all costs.

The way to use social media marketing is two fold. One, you use it to build authority, brand, and status. Two, you use it for relationships.

There’s a lot of money in building trust and bonds of friendship with your customers and joint venture partners using social media. That’s all there is. There’s no direct marketing element like running an ad.

You may use LinkedIn to multiply your relationships with business partners. It’s a perfect playing ground for that. You may make thousands of dollars from one deal you make with a joint venture partner you connected with on LinkedIn.

You may use Twitter to connect with your customers in a friendly way instead of being “all business” all the time. People like to do business with personal people, not just a company entity. In these two ways, social media is invaluable. You don’t want to use it in the way most marketers use it, as a direct marketing vehicle.
