Nancy,
I particularly like your point #5. Busy doing the right things is key.
Personally I’ve held off on most of the social networking sites. I like and use LinkedIn. I’m a passive Plaxo user who uses birthday alerts to send off a greeting now and then.
What I see is a challenge with some of these ’social media’ is being able to sort the wheat from the chaff. If it distracts you from key activities, maybe it’s better to avoid them all together.
Email and my phone remain great tools.
Clayton

Nancy,
great insight! I agree – there is a percentage of folks who are using scare tactics and incorrect data to try to get others to dive into social media marketing. Like anything else, it is something to evaluate and choose the right tools for your industry, niche, and type of business.
Thanks for posting this –
