My Facebook Group

Social Media, what can we say other than maybe it's really not too Social after all? The reason why I made this comment is in regards to how we as humans socially interact amongst one another in this new fashion of business & entertainment; especially in regards to the ever so popular "Facebook and its 'Groups / Pages' that we all tend to 'Like,' so much".

Join-our-facebook-group
Everybody does everything now a days! People have Groups upon Groups & people add people to these groups, which more people add people to these groups. I get added daily to new Groups, just as well as you may have if your a Friend on Facebook, but I never felt the need to search and contact the creator of a group; ask for permission to post advertisement nor read the Rules, if "any" at all. People, now today have become so disgruntled over who's group it actually is, hmmm FACEBOOK, maybe, saying its "MY GROUP, I CREATED IT, so FOLLOW MY RULES!?!?" Too much work to say in a Globally Free Economy via www.

Question? - How would someone or not know if a person created a "Group" for "Business Purposes, "  at all, rather than the known Facebook, "LIKE" Page? Its just ironic to me that "WE" as the people put so much Faith in these so called Facebook Groups, MySpace pages, Twitter Followers, & other Social Networks which in reality "NO ONE LEGALLY OWNS!" We The People with these so called, "GROUPS" now see other people add "advertisement, promotion, marketing, business, etc." & say oh "Don't Do That, because I DO THAT TOO!" Why, is it because you may see others as a threat of COMPETITION, when I thought in Business, "Competition is Good!?"

Nowadays, everyone is a damn CEO of some part of fallible "business," whether they are or not who am I to comment. What should question most, is if they are receiving any sort of real revenue for their services. IDK (I Don't Know), but (lol)! True business marketing & ethics with a company's business focuses on the 80/20 Rule; where a business will focus more on the 20% that do & or have spent with their company, rather than the 80% that doesn't or never has, or may never will.

Business minded entrepreneur, small business, start up company need to Over-Stand that in this New Social Media Market place that you need to have multiple streams of communication to get the message out; websites, flyers, business cards, advertisement, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, StumbleUpon, LinkedIn, & the millions of Digital Apps to be Effective & Efficient. As Seth Godin once wrote, “If you are not annoying some people, you are not operating close enough to the edge.  The edge is where the money is.”  What is your company doing that is dramatically and meaningfully changing the landscape from what your competitors do & think?  Be truthful with yourself. Is, what you are really doing anything noteworthy – i.e. worth RT-ing, or "Like-ing," about, or as the most profitable of them ALL... Word Of Mouth?
