Social Media Marketing Social media are dominant outreach tools in public relations. They provide easy outlets for communicating to a large group of people in a very personal manner. Social media also enable two-way communication, which is absolutely essential for an effective outreach plan. However, social media marketing is not as simple as posting a status update. Estilo Communications staff is full of early adopters of social media, so we have years of experience using Facebook, Twitter and the like to market companies, promote events and stay connected with the community.
