“Social media is often misinterpreted as only a content distribution channel whereas it empowers your target audiences for a complete two way interaction with your brand”, quoted the CEO of Vizz Media, Mr. Nakul Mehra.

According to him, social media marketing not only promotes two way interaction but also allows retailers to collect feedback from target audiences. Their individual feedback and requirements in turn help with product enhancement and online branding, which is really imperative to survive in this competitive market.

Undoubtedly, social media is here to stay and as a compulsive business owner, one must acquaint him/herself with social media tools while considering what is relevant to the retail industry. This is the key to raise sales and awareness of the products online.
