Is Social Networking REALLY Networking?

Facebook. Twitter. YouTube. LinkedIn. My Space. The list of social networking sites goes on and on.

These sites help you connect to your family and friends, but for a business, are you REALLY connecting with customers?

Seth Godin gives a great point of view on REAL Networking vs. FAKE Networking on the internet.  Business owners shouldn’t be concerned with only pushing their message around. They will never have a successful Social Networking program if they talk only about what they do. True connecting is talking AND listening.

The person in charge of your Social Networking program should reach out to people and share ideas and information as you would with a friend or family member.  Once someone gives you tips that you can use, you truly connect with them and are truly networking.
