What is Social Media Marketing?

Social media marketing is the creation and publication of content on social media to build connections and promote products and services. It’s an outlet that can help turn a passive audience into a customer, and a first-time customer into repeat business.

Social media marketing is more than posting pictures, videos, and statuses to your feed. Professionals who want to effectively use social media as a marketing tool need to identify their audience and build a strategy identifying which outlets and content will best promote their company while building meaningful relationships with their audience.
