Every business can open a Facebook account for free. Every business can open a Twitter account for free.  Every business can open a Pinterest account for free. Every business can open a Tumblr account for free.  Every business can open a Google+ account for free.

Many old, established and successful businesses are reluctant to do marketing and outreach via social media. These businesses want to do what they have always done to succeed. While many of the old established practices will continue to be successful long into the future. There is no reason to ignore some basic truths about today's society. These basic facts include the following:

• people are using the internet more each day
• people are looking to social media to help form their opinions and make purchasing decisions
• people are getting their news from the internet rather than traditional hard copy sources

With these thing being facts, businesses must look toward the internet and social media sources in order to market and do outreach for their businesses. Keep in mind, it was not that long ago that Facebook was seen as "a cute little thing for the young folks." It was not long ago that people wondered why in the world people would talk to each other via text messages rather than telephone calls. Social media is here, and it is here to stay. Do your business a favor and get involved in social media now.

 Social media is something that businesses can get involved with for little or no money. So, the question for you this  Thrilling Thursday is what is the social media plan for your business?
