What I am doing

I am a Social Media Specialist.

Just started this role beginning of the month and today is my third week in.

Being a newbie, I have lots to learn about social media strategies. Data mining, analytic, communities management, social interaction, social participation, conceptualization and strategic ad buying or media planning. Those are basically the fundamental of my job description.

My perception of social media has changed entirely. Social media is no longer just Facebook and Twitter, sharing with friends and family. But rather a tool that businesses can gain insights to connect with you as a consumer or potential customer.

There is just so much to read and so much information to absorb. Best of all, ALL the information are FREE!!!

Do I see myself doing this for a long time? Yes, definitely! There is just so much to learn and I believe that social media will constantly grow and that I will have to grow with it eventually.

Here is a little info-graphic I got from mashable.com
