Stereotype #2: If I invest $1 in social media, I get $1 turnover

The ROI of Social Media is not necessarily obvious, because the value is sometimes intangible (quality, content, etc) and difficult to measure. In addition, Social Media is not to sell directly, but to retain and create a community, which is priceless.

Stereotype #4: If my competitor did it, I'm going to throw me too
