What is the Yin-Yang of Social Media Marketing?

What is the Yin-Yang of Social Media Marketing? | Digital Marketing Power | Scoop.it

Social Media marketing is a delicate balance of well-conceived content, interaction with your intended audience, clear objectives and careful measurement, all of which ultimately produce leads and sales.

Yin-Yang is a fundamental concept in Chinese philosophy where seemingly opposite or contrary forces are interconnected and interdependent on each other. These forces give rise to each other as they interrelate to one another. The interaction between Yin and Yang establishes harmony and gives birth to things.

Mastering Social Media marketing depends very greatly on your ability to understand and capitalize on the power of these two forces in all that you do. Certain components lend themselves to one or the other but without each one working in tandem, your Social marketing will fail, one way or the other.
