Intro to Social Media Marketing-2

Over the past two weeks, I've had the chance to read a little bit of Intro to Social Media Marketing, by Todd Kelsey. He talks in terms of the tools and things that will help in ones career or life. The topic that he mentions that really put things into perspective is online and digital marketing. Social media marketing has become a large part in today society, whether we like it or not. As we grow into this era of new and advanced technology, people have to keep up in order to stay with the times and innovations to be successful.

In the chapter 1, Kelsey says that digital/online marketing are prominent according to LinkedIn.com and other studies. This does not surprise me at all. You really cannot go a day without some one mentioning Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, etc. You look at your phone just about every minute and have notifications from different social medias. It's really crazy to think about how the times really have changed in the short span of my life. Social media is a part of life now. You see stuff about it everywhere. So we shouldn't neglect this new idea. If we stay stuck in the past, then we cant move forward. We need to embrace the change from these technological advances and use them as our tool to becoming successful. Especially because you know how to use it why not use it to get a job.
