In today’s fast paced online revolution, it’s easy to be left behind. Traditional marketing is becoming less and less effective. Popular new tools and websites hit the mainstream each day, causing further fragmentation of marketing channels. Embracing Web 2.0 tools and social media networks is now crucial for all businesses. But with most small business owners juggling multiple hats from management to marketing, it’s difficult to keep pace.

Why should you get on board with this marketing revolution? A recent study from McKinsey identified that companies that embrace the latest 2.0 tools are seeing substantial results. In fact, companies that integrated the use of six or more 2.0 technologies into employees’ daily activities were significantly more likely to increase market share than companies that had minimal Web 2.0 use. These technologies are here to stay, and the businesses that embrace them with intensive use are seeing the greatest benefits.
