Work has hooked into the byways of social media, so I feel I have to
participate, and, frankly, I enjoy reading the status updates of FB posters.
I recently created a Twitter account as well, though I now realize I'll
have to upgrade my current phone of limited smartness to a full fledged
smart phone. This way I can participate in social media via phone rather
than computer, which is kind of fun when you're on the train or bus or those
lazy moments on the couch.
As to a marketing tool, well, John, if you're going to create a full-blown
photography business, I would think your first priority is to create a
strong blood & bones client base in your geographic location; seems to me
this necessitates an intial focus on traditional local advertising options
and positive word-of-mouth. Once this has been established, FB & Twitter
could prove useful as a way to stay in touch with your existing client base,
and help to expand it.
Cheers, Christine
