Doing so requires a greater focus from across and within the marketing organization, along with dedicated ownership, accountability and governance. Why? Think about a typical b-to-b organization’s focus on sales enablement. Is marketing enablement somehow less important? Of course not. The problem is that it just doesn’t exist today, and the CMO can’t do it alone. Just as the sales enablement discipline has evolved into a dedicated function ensuring that the sales team has the necessary skills and training, tools, processes, and programs, so too must marketing enablement. This new function will finally allow the CMO to make sure the b-to-b marketing team is at the top of its game every day. After all, change is the only constant.

Easy answer: there's no formality. Look at IT, and each of it's myriad of disciplines: each one has a path to formalized training.

 

No curriculum. No trainers. No certification. It's an amoeba.

Networking is about meeting and building relationships with people for a purpose. It’s that last part that counts in the definition, the purposeful part. Otherwise we’re all just socializing, which is what much of it amounts to anyway because if you don’t know your purpose, it’s pretty difficult to achieve it.

 

That’s fine if you just enjoy socializing for the sake of socializing (and, actually, the best social networkers are people like that usually). However, if you’re spending marketing dollars and the prosperity of your business depends on the success of your social networking, you’d better do a bit more than socialize.

 

1. The Question You’d Better Answer First
Why are you interested in social networking? To build your business? How, exactly?Do you sell online or just promote online? Are you locally, nationally, or internationally focused? Do you want people to talk about your business online, share your links, spread the word about you, learn more about you, recommend you, sign up for a program, get a free sample, get your e-newsletter, read your blog, interact with you, ask questions, get a membership, order a product, pay for a service, refer you to their friends?
