The survey also found that over two-thirds of the companies have no defined social media strategy and 37% don’t even use a single social media channel...no Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, LinkedIn...nothing...It's worth noting that the survey data was compiled from 89 of its members.  Certainly a microcosm, but the findings are fairly universal. Most companies cited a lack of resources as…See More

Manufacturers have dipped their toe into social media, some more then others, but have been hesitant to dive in fully since no direction has been given.
