60-seconds-social-2-1 Infographic

Or is it that the resisters are too old to learn?  Let's deal with all the objections in one fell swoop. None of your issues matter! I know it changes your idea of privacy. I know it opens your brand up to people who might say mean things. I know it will take resources to manage. But instead of worrying about any of those things, you need to be worried about not being at the social party. The fact is that most people now … [Read more...]
