Social media, now looking more for business than for socializing.

[Cryptock]

If we do look back about the real purpose on why Facebook is been created for example.

A key encapsulation of what Zuckerberg believes early Facebook to be: a place that brings people together and connects groups of friends, so that they can then share information and ideas about the things that they’re passionate about.Source

So this do really shows that this is really that intended for socializing.It is really just in a matter of time on which it did really become big then it is where people do really make use of
that thing to be an advantage to promote their business and services until it becomes a main medium on where people do sell out their stuffs and other things.
Im aint saying its bad but it turns out to become in todays standards.

In my opinion, the goal remains the same, but those who are using the medium decide to diversify their use and start making money or leaving from it, which is a smart choice since we cannot be wasting our data and not making any money from it, particularly now that data is expensive.
I like how social media is now used to make some money because, despite its unreliability, it has helped some people by giving them a source of income.

it requires a lot of hard work behind it to make a good content - it is not always that you just upload a video and you become viral in a day and would start earning money. Handling social media is a bit of task

Almost all social media is currently used for selling, those who have difficulty working and have no income usually use social media to sell, and in my opinion this is not a problem and of course I hope that social media provides a special marketplace so that it can be used as a new business unit .

This requires a bit of hard work and consistency only the best one wins the race of social media.

[jossiel]

And this trend that has changed also generated a lot of new jobs.

From influencers, to marketers and anything that's related to brand awareness and growth, there have been a lot of new jobs and opportunities that it has brought.

That means a big business has came out from it and another source of money for most people that will dive into this venture.

That is correct - I second your opinion
most of the time when I think not to use social media much - I use it so much and forget my manifestation. But social media is good thing no doubt about it

Good thing depending on the usage.

If you're able to use social media for your own good then it is no doubt that its effects to you are good. But if used badly, that's not going to give you the impression that you're having right now.

Because with what I've seen, those people that didn't use it for the betterment and for the opportunities that it has got. That has made them lose their sanity.

Currently, many social media platforms have added a special Marketplace to their own social media platforms. for example on tiktok and FB. And this really helps the economy of today's millennials who do more social activities online. so they are also comfortable doing business online through social media.

so in essence social media has opened up new opportunities for business people or new people who have just launched a business. Even with our own creativity, we can bring in income through social media. namely by becoming a content creator. And now many are doing it and making a lot of profit from it. some even focus on becoming content creators. because currently content creator on social media is even considered a promising job. it's just that the competition is tougher.

I think we all are wasting so much time in watching the videos and dance moves and music
that we are becoming lazy and distracted -- the phone has chained us horribly and there is no escape

[shinratensei_]

things evolve, social media in general being used business because we all know everyone are flocking in the platform so it's good opportunity if we could market our product by simply creating social media accounts and get millions view which means good exposure and this equals to massive advertisement that quite literally requires millions of dollars and it seems general population of the social media platform are fine with it.
even right now tiktok are shifting market by changing around their business model from pure social media generating money from advertisement to become platform for e-commerce in which also charge fee from its users that uses their platform, everything right now is super integrated, that I think eventually every platform will at least do multiple roles nowadays.
so it's rather understandable that right now social media are changing functionalities and this is for better. at least right now there is a way for advertisement without even the need to spend some huge chunk of money just make public stunt and you're set.

Well, if you're a working person and you watch those type of videos for entertainment and pastime, that's fine.

But if you're an unemployed person and you're spending all of your time staying on social media watching all of those contents. Then the problem is in you.

And as you've said, you're distracted and attached to social media which is a problem that many are experiencing as of today.

Job itself is getting a new look that now your job doesn't have to be boring for it to bring income.

The monetizing of social media has also help the social media platforms as they attract new customers both for content creating and consumption. The content creators bring in the customer to the social platforms and they get paid for that and for also keeping the customers entertained.

Yes, it's no easy job and you need to put a lot of effort for you to become profitable on it and be talented.

But everything can learned online if this is related to this skill. That's why those that have learned it the hard way learned more than of those learning today.

Thanks to those AI tools that they can take advantage of its usage because it makes easier output but still, don't have to fully rely their work on it and still needs some checking for better accuracy of what they're trying to make especially in video and content creation.

Social media has evolved to become an important platform for both socialization and business. Social media now is becoming more and more spaces for businesses to engage to customers, to promote their products and services as well as building their brands. Which is very helpful to the business owner, as i had evaluated and watch different social media platform it seems that the sales of businessmen boost up when they had used social media platform to promote their products. But still social media is still effective for socializing space to reconnect with family and friends.

The function of social media is now different from the initial concept of creating social media, most social media is currently only used for business, unfortunately transactions that occur are direct so they are prone to being used for fraud, social media developers should provide a marketplace so users can easily find and transactions with other users so as to reduce fraud.

What you said is also available on many social media at this time, for example on social media Facebook which has long provided marketplace services, as well as other social media such as Tiktok and Instagram. That is, you don't need to worry about that because the development of social media is also seen based on the needs of the users so that social media can continue to be used by many people according to the uses they need.

So there's nothing wrong with the initial creation concept or being used for doing business because basically everyone in this world is highly recommended to do business so they can develop in their life without having complaints every day of their life. In your opinion so far, is there anything wrong with some of the social media you use? Because I'm sure you also use social media for your own needs at this time.

I don't think anyone expected that social media would be what it is today and it's very exciting,
maybe what you say can be a solution to minimize fraud,
Let's see the development of social media in the future.

Yes, it's true.

Advertising is one of the main things today and it had made through social media easier. You can even appoint it online and do it on your own and just pay the fee that's being asked by the platform.

There goes the new professionals and another business that has made like media buyer or ads specialists through social media.

[Alpha Marine]

If we open social media, advertisements will be met from users, the presence of social media is proven to make sales can increase, I have many friends who use social media for business facilities, and in my opinion this is natural and not violating the rules, as long as it is used for business and not deceptive it is natural to use social media for business.

Social media has become so huge these days. It can be used for literary everything. A lot of people have online stores without a website, it's just their social media platforms. Businesses use social media as a way to communicate with their customers and potential customers. There are so many opportunities from social media if used rightly.
If you want to advertise your business or product, social media is the first place, and social media advertising has very sophisticated marketing tools and analytical tools that can help businesses.

Despite the opportunities of social media for business, it is still a place for socializing. It's good to just relax and surf through a social media site for things that interest you during your free time.

Correct. and there is a cycle of mutual benefit chain between social Media Platforms and their users. Everything has the same benefit in making money. Especially for artists. they become easier to build popularity through social media. And even ordinary people can promote themselves if they have artist-like skills. so now many new artists are popping up from social media.

For large companies, they can even read market trends from the reactions and interactions of people on social media.
