Barack Obama a perfect example of the power of social networking

This is a recent press release sent out for Barnaby the day Barack Obama announced victory over Hillary Clinton as the presidential nominee for the US democratic party.

Barack Obama’s victory over Hillary Clinton is a perfect example of the power social networking sites such as Facebook and You Tube can have when used to promote your business.
Obama’s campaign saw him use the power of web 2.0 such as social networking sites, You Tube and Facebook to gain personal access to millions of people that he otherwise would have not been able to reach.
Social networking guru Barnaby De Palma of Alive Online says this is an excellent example of the power of social networking sites and how it can be applied to ordinary business.
“Social networking is not just for young people or a time wasting site as many people believe and Obama’s campaign has been a great example” De Palma said.
Social networking is a powerful tool and anyone in business should be learning how to use it to promote their business De Palma said.
“Facebook has over 70 million users and the fastest growing demographic is over the over 25’s, there is massive potential to gain exposure for your business and the best part is that it is free” De Palma said.
Facebook has many great applications that can be added to help promote a business and is an excellent networking tool, it is just a matter of knowing how to use it De Palma said.
“I run workshops teaching people about web 2.0 and the impact it can have on a business, the clients are amazed as most of the sites are free but are extremely powerful” De Palma said.
Obama’s campaign is a sign of a new age and all business people need to get smart about using the Internet De Palma said.
