Do you think social media is now becoming more a place for business than socializing, Could it be as a result of digitalization and things moving online or more people now starting business online because of need to somehow generate income or another source of income for self to survive the economic situations which is becoming tougher?
Due to how long people now spend time on these platforms, social media have become more of a place of business than socialization, because according to studies I was made to understand that an average individual spend 2 hours and 27 minutes on social media every day, which is quite a long period of time doing either Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and the others chatting or watching video contents, which business enterprises took that to an advantage as it's one of the fastest means to advertise to a large audience within a shortest period of time, far more better than our normal traditional means whereby a seller will have to move from door to door or from one market to another just to create awareness for his/her products (i.e goods or services). But with the help of social media, one can equally create awareness right from the comfort of his home, get paid & deliver goods to those in need.
