For instance, the infographic charts the percentage adoption of various social media platforms by B2B companies. Depending on how you and your local social media company interpret this data, it suggest that there are certain platforms with which you’re falling behind, some that you’ve overestimated, or some with which you might want to position yourself as an early adopter.
The same can be said of content categories, which are similarly charted in this infographic according to how much they are used in social media. Is your local social media company generating enough original written content to keep up with the pack, and is there any way they might be able to utilize original audio content to distinguish themselves from the 78 percent of social media marketing that neglects it?
