Our response to the ‘directors’ negative mind block – How does your boss measure return on investment when attending networking luncheons or participating in Associations.

Done correctly, social networking on sites like Twitter or Facebook is really no different – you don’t measure participation based on direct sales, you measure success based on identifying one potential strategic partner, acquiring one actionable bit of advice, or striking up a conversation or two that may eventually lead to developing a new customer. That kind of sounds like a set of solid networking objectives doesn’t it?

Put simply, there simply is no ignoring or escaping social networking. It’s a simple and highly effective extension to your marketing and business communications.
