Social media is a marketing tool. It's not the success of your business. You have to balance the tools versus your objectives. Sometimes it's more important to get started, get active, get educated, and be successful – even in a small corner of the world – which may be a small corner of the social media world. Once you understand how these platforms work for your business you'll start to learn from your experiences and learn to apply them instead of thinking you have to have all the answers when you start.
