Do you think it is smart for Corporations to use Twitter or Facebook? What about small local businesses? In what way could a small business, such as Fritz, utilize a Twitter account to maximize business and market its product?
I think that it's extremely smart for corporations to use Twitter and Facebook. Basically any positive way to advertise a business or company will be beneficial, whether it's online or in the public eye. Small, local businesses can benefit from Twitter and Facebook as well, although I think Facebook would be a bit more helpful in certain situations. For example, if someone "likes" Fritz's on Facebook, that information will show up on other friend's newsfeeds. Also, the person who "likes" Fritz on Facebook can be the first to know about any promotions, deals, or events coming up before anyone else does. It's a win-win situation for both the business and the customer.
Twitter, on the other hand is different. I will randomly see "promoted" tweets that come up on my newsfeed from businesses/companies that I don't follow. Companies can go to Twitter and pay them to put their tweet onto every Twitter user's feed. I don't necessarily think that small, local businesses will go to that extent, although twitter can benefit them in smaller ways.
Does anyone who uses Twitter or Facebook follow a local business in Keene? Do you think the business having either account has benefitted them?
