The Federation of Small Businesses (FSB) recently published an article in their member's publication the Voice, relating to Social Media Marketing (SMM). At Artlines Media, many people we speak to believe it is not for them or their type of business. Usually this is because of time restraints when running a small business on your own, a fear of technology or a lack of knowledge when it comes to newer marketing methodologies.

So if you have shied away from using Facebook, Twitter and other Social Media to generate more business for your company here are some hard facts:

* Social Media interaction is on the increase.
* More than 100 Million users log into Facebook at least once per day.
* First time visitors to Twitter grew from 475,000 in February 2008 to Seven Million in February 2009. This includes 6,000 SMEs a day according to O2.
* In May of this year, LinkedIn celebrated it's 60th Birthday by welcoming it's 40 millionth member.

If you own a business that is suffering from the current economic downturn and would like to learn more about Social Media Marketing and how it can help generate more revenue for your business then contact the team at Artlines Media today.
