Do you think social media is a fad? Socialnomics Video v2

Do you think social media is a fad? Do you just hate the words “Social Media” ? Are you having conversations about should I start a blog or have a Facebook fan page or a have Twitter account? Are you tired of hearing about Social Media? If you see another tweet about social media you’re going to scream? Are you ready to be the next great social media consultant? Are you having trouble proving the ROI in social media? Do you want to show brands how to tweet?  If you answered yes to at least one of the questions above, then you need to watch Erik Qualman author of Socialnomics version two of the Social Media Revolution video on Youtube. Missed it? Looking for some good data for your clients? Take a look at the video below.

From the YouTube description:

Social Media Revolution 2 is a refresh of the original video with new and updated social media & mobile statistics that are hard to ignore. Based on the book Socialnomics by Erik Qualman.

A few stats from the video:

• There are over 200,000,000 Blogs
• Only 18% of traditional TV campaigns generate a positive ROI
• 60 millions status updates happen on Facebook daily
• The ROI of social media is that your business will still exist in 5 years

See the entire list of stats here: Social Media Revolution 2 (Refresh)

Just in case your new to social media and you didn’t see the original Social Media Revolution video, take a look.

So….. Do you think social media is a fad?

*Disclaimer: To my knowledge no tweets or status updates were harmed while recording the video and Erik did not send me any direct messages to blog about his book or videos.
