Before you join the throng of companies and use your valuable and limited resources in your wish to make your social media efforts succeed, do THIS quick audit first. That way you do not waste your social media efforts, and you have realistic expectations in having a winning social media strategy for your company and make waves online. Past the infographic below is my few thoughts on objections that I often hear from CEOs and business owners whose social media efforts, for some, reason have not driven traffic to their site, grow social media engagement and gather more leads. Note: Social media marketing has several components that company of any size should factor in. Are you willing to share other people’s content on your social channels? Discuss your answers with your team to craft your best plan of action and options if you find any gap to make waves online. These are common social media objections that I hear from business owners and CEOs that I interviewed.

This should make one realize that time is NOT cheap – yours, nor your social media specialist’s. Objection 5: I already have a website.
