,Social Media refers to websites and software programmes that let users
create, share, and engage in social networking. This can be accessed on
personal computers and mobile phones. This allows the free exchange of
ideas, interests, information, and viewpoints with other people who have
the same interests.
Social media is an effective tool for customer engagement and business
promotion I was able to gather the most recent figures from smart insights,
which were last updated in June 2022. According to estimates, 59% of
people worldwide currently use social media. Therefore, as an organisation
you cannot afford to turn away from this potential reach.
Social media was initially developed for personal use, but it has since transformed
into a potent tool for businesses that has proven to be incredibly effective in
promoting their goods and services.
