It adds a real social feel to the company and new product role outs can now be done live on a Facebook page.

2. Twitter with its versatile openness to one and all offers companies to reach out to customers and clients much more easily. People find their fav companies on twitter and become followers. This allows companies to much more easily push their products and their services. Feedback is also live as they can track in real-time what is being said about them.

4. Companies can now like never before add real-time responsiveness to their services. Addressing issues that may crop up immediately with without delay thereby saving a lot of time and hard work which would have otherwise become time consuming and arduous.
