I realize that this group doesn't get a lot of traffic, but for those of you who are here, I'd be interested in your thoughts on the various sites in the title.
I realize that small businesses vary in too many ways to count. Service business, retail, low dollar value items, high dollar value items. Small can mean service business income of $25,000 a year or gross sales in the millions; by the way, I don't buy the SBA definition of small business, which I think counts business with sales in excess of nine figures.
With those brief comments as preface, what are your experiences with the sites mentioned, or others, for that matter. Is it worth your time? Are you generating sales? What do friends and colleagues have to say about the business value of these sites.
I haven't updated my FB page in months - no interest in alerting my competition to where I'm active and who I'm doing business with - and haven't tweeted for even longer. I have a linked in premium account, but with everybody wanting to be part of everyone else's network, that seems pretty pointless from a marketing/sales perspective.
Your thoughts?
