Have you ever wondered about the ROI of social media? Well you are not alone, it’s hard to detect if your store’s Facebook page is actually driving sales or how many in-store visitors your Instagram creates. The key to discovering the value of social media is picking the right platform for your store. Just because there are 12+ social media platforms, it does not mean you need to be on all of them. Choosing the right social media platform is crucial, especially with the new social media trends.
