To Wrap Up
• In social media, you want to connect and interact with your customers. So where are they and how do you interact with them?
• Don’t forget to distinguish between customers and users. The customer pays for the product.
• Split into smaller customer segments• So once you really understand your customer, you can
pinpoint where they hang out and how to talk with them. You will also understand what information they will find engaging and helpful. These are key to having a successful social media strategy.
