<p>Hmm, no surprises then. The reality is that most businesses don&#8217;t have the first clue where to engage or how to engage with <a href="http://www.brooksdigitalmarketing.co.uk/social-media-marketing.php">social media</a>. I&#8217;ve been doing a bit of <a href="http://www.brooksdigitalmarketing.co.uk/social-media-marketing.php">training</a> recently covering setting up campaigns, which tools to use for distribution, interaction and very important &#8211; tracking.</p>
<p>Tracking what is going on is the real gem and there are some cool and &#8216;free&#8217;  tools out there that you can get started with today.</p>
<p>The bottom line is that it&#8217;s just about taking that initial dive in. Yeah, sure, you&#8217;ll flap about a bit just like your first time in a swimming pool and you&#8217;ll take the odd gulp down the wrong hole but in time your business will find it&#8217;s niche and your prospects will find you.</p>
<p>In 5 years time you&#8217;ll wonder what all of the fuss was about.</p>
