According to this new infographic from Brian Solis, the state of social business is a relatively positive one. Some of the key statistics include:
- 78% of companies have a dedicated social media team, an increase of 11% since last year.
- The average social media team is 15.6 people in 2013, an increase from 11 in 2010.
- 48% said their company executives aren’t aligned with their social media strategy.
- Just 17% of companies say their social media strategy is “mature.”
While it seems that the social media industry is continuing to grow, the last bullet identifies that companies know they still have a long way to go before they are able to identify their strategy as mature.
What do you think the future of social media for business will be?
