You do not need a profile in all social networks. There are new social networks popping up every day, it is not necessary for your business to have a presence in all of them. We recommend you at least have a presence in two of the major social networks.
Facebook allows you to share multimedia content as well as text, you can interact with your clients and prospects through polls, questioners, videos, pictures, text, you can collect emails. You can even embed your eCommerce store into your profile to allow users to purchase from you without the need to leave Facebook.
Twitter only allows you to share up to 140 characters of text, and the conversation is done in real time. Think of twitter as a big chat room where you can target your messages with the use of hash-tags to reach the right audience. Twitter is a great tool to attract prospects to visit your blog, website, Facebook page or video.
