		<description>Thanks for the name check on ShipServ. Hopefully sharing our story encourages other &quot;deeply B2B&quot; businesses like us. With 65% of our target audience believing that social media is a &quot;distracting waste of time&quot;, we could&#039;ve easily canned any social media efforts. So my message to everyone: is stick with it - it&#039;s worth it.

CMO, ShipServ

		<description>Great post... Very cool video.

I always question statistics because I believe they can be twisted to represent whatever one wants. However, I whole-heartedly agree with the general thrust. The B2B market is about to explode in the social media world.

I think the video glazed over two incredibly important parts, though. I tell people that &quot;Twitter and Facebook are the &#039;candy&#039; of social media... The real meat is in blogging and forums.&quot;

It is in these arenas that the B2B channel is best addressed. A buyer from a paint manufacturer who is looking to purchase a forklift is not going to search Twitter to find out who is the best forklife manufacturer. However, that buyer might do a Google search and find the &quot;Forklift Forum&quot;. From there, this buyer can learn the pros and cons of various models... And even build a relationship with a local distributor who participates on this forum.

Social Media Works. I use it every day.</description>

		<description>I can&#039;t believe that 81% of B2B companies have a twitter account. This figure is extraordinarily high. Maybe it is true for the USA, but the UK is definitely nowhere near that figure. I actually doubt that 80% of B2B companies in the UK even have a website let alone a twitter account.</description>
