You probably heard about the 5 "P"s ofMarketing:
• Product: The products or services offered to your customers/clients.
• Price: The pricing strategy for the desired profit margin.
• Place: Distribution --getting your product/service to your target market.
• Promotion: Communicating with your customers.
• People: The value of your people and people at large (i.e. influencers)
But if you think about it, Social Media is different; with Web 2.0 it is no longer a monologue, it's now a dialogue, so there really are more than just a handful P's in Social Media and Social Media Marketing.So let's take it up a notch, shall we?.. Here is the
25 P's of Social Media we can think of:
•

Also pay attention to the fact there are are more letters in the alphabet! Why is the letter "P" significant? The answer is, it is not!
