Seeing the developments now very clearly can be said to be true. Media is always moving and changing, responding to innovation and the needs of its users. In today's world, social media has become a platform for businesses, with increased digital access and communication providing opportunities for people to start their own businesses.

Social Networks provide an outlet for businesses to make money & they have found a way to put their products to good use; that's the business side. But there are many people who use social networks mainly for self-expression, as you should do in real life. Just because it can be made into a business tool doesn't mean that it has to be one!

Well, Now it's all back to us, what we want to be, designer, user or not so that we can make wise use of this resource in the future.

Social media at the beginning of its emergence was indeed devoted to a place to socialize and talk freely in socializing without distance restrictions. because we can socialize with anyone and from anywhere without restrictions.
but when social media has become much in demand and has become a common thing. so naturally if in it will appear businesses. because business is also part of social itself. and indeed today we see more business on social media. if in the past the days were filled with individual status updates whether it was about complaints etc. now more are promoting businesses and products. but that's social. because in the real world now more and more talk about business.
because after all we are free to use social media with a record of obeying the rules too.
Some of the benefits that we feel from social media are:

1. makes it easier for us to interact with many people,
2. to expand the relationship,
3. distance and time are no longer a problem,
4. it is easier to express yourself,
5. Information dissemination can take place quickly,
6. The cost is cheaper.

the points above are very good when used for a business. such as for the promotion of our business and save more on promotional costs. provided we can maximize it properly. So it's no wonder that now many business people are using social media to promote their business. even if we have no business. we can still get income from social media. an example of making a video on facebook by fulfilling the applicable requirements we can earn money from there. so now even many people who become successful just by playing social media. because they can take advantage of an opportunity into a promising business.

Social media is an ideal place to promote a business. You can reach a lot of potential customers and communicate directly with them. It is also free to use social media so you don't really have to worry about an advertising budget. People still socialize but with a struggling economy, making a few extra dollars is taking precedence for some people.

Once it was Yahoo, later Google had the dominance and now everything is getting moved towards Facebook and Instagram. Even for the search results and maps people have begun using Instagram. Many features are availed and slowly this will make big change. As the thread title states social platforms are much into revenue making.

In fact, businesses need a wider to infinity space to increase product visibility. On the other hand, platforms such as Facebook continue to develop to accommodate users' business activities by adding features such as marketplaces, instant payments. Gradually, they have shifted from their initial orientation as a social media platform.

Online shopping growth continues to increase and many have beat offline shopping, many large companies that continue to burn money to provide online shopping services, of course for consumers this is good because more choices and consumers can get the best quality and prices.

Social media is indeed a suitable place for business, because people today prefer to shop online. But business on social media has its negative and positive impacts. In social media, we can easily promote, and immediately know by many people, we can also directly interact with other people. But in social media there are also many people who are always deceived. Therefore, it may be natural for a business on social media, but you have to be careful.

Makes sense to a point. I mean we are in a world where companies are trying to act as if they are people, and people are acting as if they are corporations, which results with a situation where we know that it is going to be a tough situation to handle for anyone involved to just socialize, because nobody is using it for that purposes.

I have tried to open some "company" type of instagram accounts too, just share some tv show stuff, or football stuff etc to gain some followers, and I can tell you that there is money to be made there, I failed because I do not have time for another job, but if there is money to be made, I am sure everyone will try to do it and turn it into a business place rather than socializing.

Yes. Social media is a good source of income today when the economy is in crisis. Among them is to earn income through advertising, selling products online, and this forum is also part of the media. Apart from that, social media also makes it easier for us to get new consumers.

I do think that this is the normal occurrence given that the world is transitioning to a digital age. Given that technology is innovating more and more each day, more businesses have started to integrate and adapt digitally, where they offer services on this platform. No wonder that social media has been flocked with tons of advertisements of businesses.

Though the social aspect is becoming more irrelevant, this is nothing but the inevitable given that the world is transitioning to this kind of aspect. The more the business can adapt to changes, the more that they can be ahead of the curve in terms of competition.

In online gambling, many people test this out first if it's responsive before they play. That's how important customer service is. There are so many ways to make a customer support feature responsive. They can include a phone number, email address, and social media accounts other than the on site chat/live chat. Owners can also add more people to handle this position if one or two people is not enough.

You think online businesses are making more waves, that is because it's easy for the people to browse the store and its product than in a physical store but the only downside is that we can't check or feel the product in our own hands. Delays on delivery is also a disadvantage to some.

Competition in sales makes people prefer to sell to those they already know, of course, those who have known or been friends for a long time don't hesitate to buy because there is little chance of fraud.

In addition to serving as a space to chat and share small stories, social networks are becoming a sales tool that gradually replaces traditional business models. I think this is coming from the developers themselves, not the users. Social media platforms steal users' information and then resell it to vendors on their platforms. This has inadvertently made online business easier than traditional forms of marketing. Gradually, people got into the habit of selling online rather than using them as a means of announcement.

It can be seen that tiktok, a social network with a popularity surpassing facebook or youtube, has also become a social network with huge online sales channels. The revenue of the stalls from tiktok shop surpasses that of major e-commerce sites such as Shoppee, lazada...

it never hurts to look for opportunities in terms of business there, actually things like this can still be included as one of their goals, because whatever it is there needs to be socialization which is very important and closely related to the goals they want to realize. on social media. So social media for now is no longer just for making friends,

I hate those who do advertising and promotion work with hidden product placement techniques. I like to use everything for its intended purpose. Those who use social media platforms for other than their intended purpose should be honest. If they honestly say that they are advertising and promoting, I can somehow accept their behavior, but if they are not honest, I will feel cheated. I want to give an unusual example. You can cut bread with a knife or kill someone. You do both actions with the same tool, but one is a crime and the other is not.

Besides, business is also part of socializing as buyers and sellers are interacting with each other.

Since millions are browsing social media every day, it's a good opportunity to take advantage of it and offer our service.

We can offer our service in social media for free and boosting our audience is just an option. That's one of the advantages of promoting on social media.

Yeah it is actually one of the best way to do or promote your business. And if you are a small seller, you can also sell your products on the market place. Based on how many people are using social media and how large the different audiences are, it has actually become a decent place to reach different people around you very easily. I wouldn't say they are looking for more business than socializing. It is the socializing that is actually helping to create business in the social media platforms.

If we can use social media well and not just for playing it can really be profitable,
Social media has now become an important part of running a business.
what you've done is a good thing and keep it up

Yes, it is now run like a business, but it is still a social networking platform. People are using the digital realm to exhibit their items and sell them online. It can be tedious at times to chat/contact a market store customer representative online. Businesses on social media are distinct from those not on social media.

I enjoy conversing with the individual I'm buying from and reviewing their personal profile as well as their acquittances to ensure that I'm buying from the right person. Today, online businesses are making more waves than those that are not. Even small businesses that are not showcasing their products online are now looking to do business online in order to reach more people and sell more.

It would be understandable and if we do see the traffic and the network on most people on the whole globe then it would be just common sense that you would really be using up this platform for you to introduce

your business or product which could really be seen by lots of people on the net or the ones who had been using or simply it did turns out that there's a marketplace on something like this.

Its not new, as long its not prohibited and its been allowed then i dont see any issues in related to this but of course there are only things which are allowable to sell
and which are illegal.
