8 Industries that have most benefited from Social Media
However with the introduction and augmentation of Social media, this aspect is not
only taken care of, but has been given a whole new meaning.
Almost every type of business has benefited from being present on social networking
sites like Facebook and Twitter or by crowding the internet space with their company
dedicated blogs.
This article highlights eight industries that have most benefited from the use of
social networking platforms.
1. Film – These industry folks have used the social platform of Twitter to such an
extent, and so beautifully to their advantage that a new term called the ‘Twitterati'
was coined in their honor. By displaying their real life details, right from praising
rival performances openly, to talking about and posting pictures of their new born
child on Twitter or Facebook, film celebrities give their fans what they crave for,
doing so, mostly always before the release of a new film.
2. Fashion –Enough cannot be said about how much the fashion industry has benefited
from social networking. From posting pictures of the latest designs and thus tempting
potential customers, to forecasting trends thus securing future sales, this industry
has gained immensely.
3. Music–.Posting videos, hiring young talent, selling records, the music industry
has finally found a medium that has helped it to reach its audiences in the most
cost effective manner.
4. Television – Whether it is a sneak peek into an upcoming episode or information
about the lead actor, the television industry has used social networking sites to
garner tremendous audience attention and participation.
5. Restaurants - Announcing an opening, change in menu, new dish or a sampling event,
restaurants and lounges are effectively using varied social arenas to promote their
business and acquire patrons.
6. Recruitment – LinkedIn has added immense significance to professional networking.
Hiring, or checking credentials before hiring with just one click are some of the
advantages gained by the recruitment industry.
7. Retail -You don't necessarily need to invest in a website to showcase and sell
your company's products now. A simple group on Facebook can do the trick. With this
medium, the retail industry has found a new avenue for directly selling its products
without bearing the costs of a physical store or fancy website.
8. Gaming - Online games are passé, Castleville, Farmville and all the newer Facebook
games are now a craze. The gaming industry has got a brand new outlet for selling
its products and has become successful to the extent that most of these social site
users are now addicted to gaming rather than networking.
Networking has now become far easier and having your company active online comes
with many additional benefits like cost effective marketing and retailing, easy recruiting
and guarded competition tracking.
