"I was in the midst of putting together a presentation on how to leverage social media to grow your business when I came across the following presentation.

There's a new series of demands being made in company meetings everywhere: "What is our social media strategy? What are we doing on Facebook and Twitter? I want followers and fans, and I want them now!"
But before companies large and small -- as well as non-profits and charities -- jump into social media, they need to take a deep breath and think about it. What are their goals?

"Influence is difficult to ascertain online. What about that guy on Twitter with 25,000 followers? Isn’t he influential? What about that woman who has 5,000 RSS subscribers? She has to be influential, correct?
People who are truly influential become conduits for human based filtering and content discovery within their communities, as members of the community look to the person of influence to connect them to people and content they should trust, and fuel positive community growth."

As I'm a social media consultant, I'm more than a little saddened that the greatest conversational medium of our lifetime is becoming a one-way messaging tool for selling energy drinks and sleeping pills.
