Title         : "Social networking as a method for marketers to adapt their skills to the Internet"

Successful marketing takes many paths over time
as old ways are exploited and everyone adopts the
"Me Also" approach, saturating it to "Non Productivity".
Are they totally dead? No!, only "ROI Useless".
When you calculate the time and effort expended,
against the value received, the data supports
this statement without mercy.

Been there, done that, still do too much of it.
I am changing as I practice and hone my skills.

Being fairly new to marketing, I am far from
being as successful as I desire, as many of
you are in this same position.

While doing some social networking and following
the approach I see being used by several people
I respect, I have come to understand the power
and longevity that social networking provides.
We are, by and large, social animals.

The one on one skill necessary to become
adept at social networking takes time and
patience. I am now developing those skills
in myself and highly recommend that anyone
reading this, start doing the same.

Social networking is the one marketing method
that will endure and be more productive, than
all of the others, especially when Internet Marketing.

Relationships are the foundation of our society.
Why not apply them to more than family and friends.
Creating extended relationships is personally rewarding
as well as creating a stable approach to business.

As I remember back through the years I can appreciate
more, and regret not pursuing further, the skills of
"Meet and Greet", I observed many successful business
people conducting.
