6 6 10 Steps To A Social Media Strategy What are you trying to accomplish? Why use social media? What kinds of social media will help us achieve our goals? Are we prepared to let go of our brand (at least a little!) and engage with customers? What will we do to encourage participation in our social media program? Who will maintain our social media presence? Do we have the resources? How does this integrate with our overall marketing strategy? What does success mean? What does failure mean? What will we do less of if we re spending resources on social media?
