The Secret Social Ingredient

Peanuts TimeWe are blessed to work with great clients who are committed to this online and social media thing. It makes our job a lot easier when that commitment is in place.

But there is one recurring issue that our clients are struggling with.

It’s the new pressures on time and resources that a commitment to digital and social places on you. You may be a politician, a retailer, or a sporting team (to use some totally anonymous examples :) ) but you will face the same issue.

Our clients have become well-versed in the role of publisher. Not that long ago it was a completely foreign concept. No longer are you just a politician, retailer, or sporting team (to use some totally anonymous examples), you also have to become a publisher of content.

Then social media comes along and moves the goal posts again. Now you have to engage in conversations with your constituents, customers, or fans (to use some totally anonymous examples).

It takes time. It takes resources. More than one would think.

No-one has the magic answer to this issue. We certainly don’t. But we are blessed with clients who are working through it with our help.

I am sure they would tell any newbie the same thing. You are going to have to dedicate time and resources to your digital and social efforts. No time = no results. Time = results.
