Is it a social network too far though?
Social media has become a vital marketing tool for SMEs of all descriptions as it not only enables them to target their advertising directly to customers and brand advocates, it also allows for genuine interaction and can be great for customer relations.
And so popular have social networks become that last year, half of all SMEs in the UK increased their marketing spend on social media; higher than that of any other marketing channel
So here’s how SMEs are making social media work for them…
Technology is meant to make our working lives a whole lot easier and, ideally, our working week shorter – British economist John Maynard Keynes predicted we’d all be working 15-hour weeks by 2030, but 15-hour days looks like it could be closer to the mark.
So if you’re one of those workaholics who never goes home on time, it’s high time you clocked off on time and got your work/life balance back in order!
How much of your working day is spent checking and sending emails?
While you may not be able to put a figure on it, the chances are your emailing is taking up too much of your time – figures from The Guardian suggests nearly half (40%) of the working week is taken up dealing with internal emails that are of no real value to the business.
So tomorrow is the fifth annual global ‘No Email Day’, an awareness day aimed at making people more social, collaborative and social at work – but could you go a day without checking your inbox?
