Social media helps make history

Wednesday, January 21, 2009 by Brian Millis

As I sit here on my couch and watch the neighborhood ball for the new President, I'm struck with a sense of pride for working for Compendium Blogware.  You might wonder why.  Well, because I am part of social media.  I'm a part of a company that empowers businesses to connect to others online.  A corporate blog opens up a conversation and brings people together.  Even though my role is small, when I help set up a multi user blog platform and give a company a new voice and presence online, I am part of a greater social media.  

How powerful can this be?  How can a strong message online make a difference? The Obama campaign is a perfect example.  During his thank you at the ball, he mentioned how this started in neighborhoods, and the message spread.  That viral spread can be largely attributed his campaigns understanding and respect of social media.  They used it to Obama's advantage and history was made.  

This same theory can be applied to small business marketing or even an enterprise size internet business blog.  On the right platform, a cohesive marketing message can be viral within social media; building your business.  For companies who are not blogging, twitting, facebooking, myspacing, or linkedining, you are missing out on a tremendous tool.  Compendium can help you get started in this realm with a great blog that is easy to use and easy to manage.
