Getting Past the Social Media "Dip"

If there's one thing I enjoy almost as much as using social media in my day-to-day communications and marketing activities, it's speaking about these relatively new online publishing tools to friends, colleagues and, frankly, anyone else who will listen to me. I've always liked sharing what I know with others, teaching, training, helping others get from point A to point B regardless of the subject. But there's something different about social media. There's something radically transformational about it that you just wouldn't understand and be able to take advantage of till you've actually used it yourself for a while.




If you ask me, the key to being successful with social media is patience, perseverance and pushing past the so-called "Dip," a difficult stretch of time (invariably the beginning) when the going can be tough and the rewards may appear few.
