Social Media... Not Just for Kids


You might have noticed the links to Facebook, Twitter, Blogger, YouTube & Linkedin at the bottom of the last two newsletters. Maybe you even clicked on them… If not, we encourage you to do so. These Social Media sites are the best way to keep your finger on the pulse of our companies, tap into expert advice and they provide us with a way to keep all our clients, friends and followers up to date.

What’s in it for you?

  • Special offers will be offered to our followers or fans through social media sites.
  • A big part of our goal with Social Media is education. Subscribing to our blog puts timely and useful information at your fingertips.
  • It’s fun! You get to see photos of our projects, hear about awards we’ve won and keep tabs on how our employees do their part to help the community.

While many of these sites have the reputation of being geared towards kids, the truth is, many businesses, and even more adults have found a use for these sites. In fact, more than 40% of Facebook’s users are over 35 years old. Despite what your kids might think, it’s not just another way to spy on them. Whether it’s getting in touch with old friends on Facebook, following a favorite celebrity on Twitter, getting expert advice from a blog, watching videos from across the street or around the world on YouTube or learning about the professional face of the company from Linkedin, these sites are a great way to communicate with and keep in touch with people everywhere.
