Bryan Weiner once said: "Social marketing eliminates the middlemen, providing brands the unique opportunity to have a direct relationship with their customers."
These days the only way to make sure everyone knows about your business is through Social Media. You need to be current, constantly keeping updates on your business' whereabouts and through being in the public eye the whole time, make sure everyone remembers your company's name. How can you do this? Through Social Media!
