The Social Media Olympics: What is your event?
If you were anything like me, you will have spent the last 6 weeks glued to the TV watching the London 2012 Olympics and Para Olympics. Some of us were even fortunate enough to get a ticket to one of the events!
It was impressive to see the dedication and effort that the participants had put in all culminating in some performances that lasted less than 10 seconds. I can not imagine training for 4 years to then have to pull everything together and perform in that moment. The British poster girl of the London 12 Olympics was the Heptathalon star, Jessica Ennis. Whilst most athletes were training to master one particular discipline, Jessica had to master 7! Her true achievement was her ability to achieve a high standard of excellence in 7 events. 
Just like Olympic athletes, many of us marketeers are trying to compete in multiple social media disciplines: The Social Media Olympics. Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google+, YouTube, Pinterest and Blogging are the popular social media channels that we are all currently trying to master. The question is do we need to master them all like a heptathlete? As a mentor, I am often asked ‘do I need to use all of the social media networks out there’? The answer is definitely NO! The answer depends on your business objectives, your target customer behaviour and the messages that you wish to communicate to them. The answer to these questions may mean that you should only need to focus on few or even one social media channel. There is no standardised answer as each social media marketing strategy differs from business to business. To help you decide which channels are appropriate for you, I would encourage you to use the social media radar to identify where your time and effort is best spent.
Very few of us undertaking marketing using social media will ever become social media heptathletes, but we can certainly focus our attentions and master the channels that matter to your business.
