Business Prefers Social Media To Win Customers
TechRadar, Wednesday, May 23, 2012 2:51 PM
According to the latest research from workspace provider Regus, which surveyed over 2,700 senior business managers across the UK, the majority of businesses in the UK (78%) believe face-to-face networking will remain the best way to find new customers over the next two to three years. However social media is catching up fast at 58%, up from 43% in the previous three years, and has knocked online advertising into third place. Traditional advertising, direct marketing and telemarketing only gain a minority vote, and are all in decline.
