I selected this article from Curatti written by Jenn Herman because it provides a close look at the types of social media followers your business needs to have.

It's important to have a community that is invested in your brand.

The Importance of Quality Social Media Followers

While you can grow a large audience quickly this may not necessarily be a benefit to your influence online. I agree that is it better to focus on the quality of the follower and not the big numbers.

Herman explains how to attract authentic followers who are interested in what your business has to offer.

Here's what caught my attention:

• The number of followers still matters if you want your content to be shared. They key is to have a targeted audience who will spread the word.

• Instead of focusing on higher numbers produce quality content instead. Along with this provide great social customer service.

• Set realistic goals on your social platform growth. For example, a ten percent increase each month. This is subject to fluctuations and changes as you monitor your accounts.

Social Content Marketing is no longer an Option.

Our web traffic will live or die on how well we engage in social media. Google Plus and Facebook and Twitter and Pinterest and YouTube and LinkedIn and Yelp are all part of our social sphere of influence.

Those are pretty good numbers.  6 out of 10 people are not buying products because other people have shared them.  Who would have thought?

Can we really influence people? Should we just listen to what they have to say and tell stories and ways to help them?
