There are a lot of questions regarding the use of social media to market starting with who is doing it, how they're doing it, and what are they getting from it. The answer to "who" is doing it is pretty much everyone who is looking to move their business forward and into the future. But not everyone is of concern to you. We need to minimize the list of who to your competitors.One of the key aspects of succeeding in business is being aware of your competitors and their advantages and/or weaknesses. However, there is a thin line between competitive knowledge and corporate espionage. Corporate espionage is wrong and an unfair practice, but using public knowledge to figure out what your competitors are up to is a necessary practice for any business wishing to progress in the market.I personally didn't think it was cheating when the Patriots recorded the opponents moves to be able to analyze them later. That was smart research. The games are viewed publicly anyways, so why not use the camera to your advantage? With social media marketing determining where billions of consumer dollars go, the technology of influencer marketing is becoming integral to being at the front of most markets. By watching how your competitor interacts with the internet community and what tools they employ, you can adapt strategies that will work to boost your business. In this case, it's who you know AND what you know. The best way to targeting intelligence is to effectively market to them by having something they are interested in.
