Social Networks Expanding Consuming

              With all of the social media networks available online to every computer user, it has certainly grown in the past few years with its success and popularity. As it was first used to be an ideal use of conversation between others, today it is much more than that and now has numerous functions for the social networking user. As we started off sharing information on each other as individuals, these networking sites are now the source of gaining information on businesses. As a business proposal, I think that these businesses with more to come should provide their services in these social networking websites such as Twitter and Facebook. The idea is to make these companies offer the service to these networkers of browsing and purchasing their products, directly through the networking websites. It may sound complicated at first, but the main focus of this proposed idea is to offer direct business to online users while connected in these social networking websites, more specifically Facebook.

               Facebook, with already providing advertisements and company group[ pages for people to “like”, can go even further by having these companies provide the opportunity for these users to purchase right on the spot. Why waste time going from link to link and making things more difficult? In this case, you can simply view the products on Facebook, and eventually purchase them right then and there. But why offer this directly on a networking site? Think about it. First off, millions and millions of online users are everyday networking on this website commenting, chatting, and sharing ideas and feedback to each other. You can simply apply this concept when someone you know or don’t know makes a purchase. Perhaps the sharing of this purchase all over Facebook will not only interest others, but will boost the advertising part of a company just by having their name, product, and service provided exploited all over the website.

               The advantage of creating this idea is to not only save time for consumers, but to share with other consumers. Every day, there is a great chance of seeing someone on your news feed when you first log into Facebook posting a status about an experience of purchasing a product or service. Their story that is shared in a public environment can be viewed and discussed as positive or negative. But people reading these posts wonder what the product or service they bought was or what the experience was like. Someone might think to themselves, “Well, what about me?” With this new proposal, the entire shopping experience can be seen in full detail, from start to finish, and can shared by all of what was involved and what the outcome was. Businesses would be exploited more, and would certainly make more profits with the help of growing in popularity. This could also be an advantage for businesses with very weak online websites where consuming, or even browsing, is very minimal. With the success and growth of this proposal, companies will be better known worldwide, and soon enough a purchase could be made with a simple “Tweet.”
