The End of Social Media & The Beginning of Social Business
by David Armano
It may not be the end of social media exactly, but the days of ad hoc and chaotic social initiatives may be coming to a close.

While social media may be measured in likes and followers, the success of social business initiatives will be evaluated by how effectively they can scale and be executed globally.
