Here are some statistics from Michael Steizner’s Social Media Marketing Industry Report (42 page PDF):
- 86% of viewers don’t trust traditional advertising any longer
- 24 of the 25 largest newspapers are experiencing record declines in circulation
- Newspaper advertising is down 18.7%
- Less than 1 out of 5 traditional TV campaigns generate a positive ROI (90% of people skip ads via TiVo / DVR)
- Wall St Journal reports that advertising in US print directories is expected to fall 39% over the next four years
- A significant 81% of all marketers indicated that their social media marketing efforts have generated exposure for their businesses. Improving traffic and growing lists was the second major benefit, followed by building new partnerships.
- An unexpected benefit of social media marketing was a rise in search engine rankings reported by more than half of participants. As the search engine rankings improve, so will business exposure, lead generation efforts, and a reduction in overall marketing expenses. About one in two marketers found social media marketing generated qualified leads.
- Owners of small businesses (2 to 100 employees) were more likely than others to report greater exposure (84.8% reporting benefits).
- The only financial cost of social media marketing is the time it takes to gain success. However, a significant percent of participants strongly agreed that overall marketing costs dropped when social media marketing was implemented.
- Improved search engine rankings were most prevalent among those who’ve been using social media marketing for years, with nearly 80% reporting a rise (and most reporting a strong improvement).
- At least 2 in 3 participants found that increased traffic occurred with as little as 6 hours a week invested in social media marketing. And those who have been doing this for years reported even better results.
