You have probably hear a lot of social media gurus talking about how you should put your company in the social media, how you should create a Facebook fan page or a blog. Well, this is not exactly the truth. In fact no, you don't have to put your company in the social media, you don't even have to create a Facebook fan page. You have to do it the right way!

What some companies don't understand is that they already participate in social media and networks, they are already where people talk about their products. And people talk a lot. You can choose to participate in those conversations or not. People will continue to talk either way. This is the essence of social media, conversations, users broadcasting their lives, their experience.

What is the most important thing a social media marketing plan will or should give you? First of all a channel to communicate with your customers or potential customers. Don't think of it as an one way channel though, social media is not a place to talk only, you should also listen.

People don't use social networks to see your advertisement. If you want to "intrude" in their private circle of friends you have to give them something of a value, something to talk about to their friends.
