Growth of Social Media in Real Time

Last week, I did a presentation on the marketing opportunities provided by the explosion of social media (video clips up soon on our website). I could see skepticism in the eyes of more of the travel professionals in the room than I would have liked. In the eyes of others, I saw dismay at the realization that they had fallen so far behind the curve.

I so wish I would have had this tool at my disposal for the non-believers. While it was originally posted last fall, VisitPittsburgh's Bob Foley just hipped me to a Social Media Counter developed by Gary Hayes.

Simply freaking amazing.

Thanks for the tip, Bob! This will be a mainstay in future presentations.

I found the social media counter helpful. I posted a link on my FB & Twitter accounts. Honestly if anyone chooses to ignore these numbers they do at their own peril.
