		<description>Good point. I think just listening and checking things out can be hard at first - especially when you&#039;re the impatient kind and like to see marketing results fast. If you don&#039;t take the time however you probably wont see any results at all. </description>

		<description>Another quick piece of advice - have a plan. What will you do if you&#039;re listening and don&#039;t like what you hear? How will you handle negativity? Who will be the &quot;face&quot; of your company? Going into it without some sort of a plan could turn into trouble once you start dipping your toes in social media.  </description>

		<description>I agree. I think businesses that listen to what the consumer wants do better, even if it means changing their business plans to suit the consumer.

		<description>Listening is a vey useful tool in all lines of business.  You really have to know what clients, leads, advertisers, etc want and do your damndest to follow through and deliver what is wanted.   
 
I think listening is under-rated a great deal; marketers always try to sell you what they want to sell, and not necessarily what you want to buy.  Well that is my .02 cents worth anyway.  :)  Reminds me of the catch line of the TV program Frasier, his character always said to the callers, &quot;I am listening&quot;. </description>

		<description>I think listening is just the first step when it comes to social media. After you listen, I think you should engage with those talking about you, and then you have the ability to make strategic business decisions based on these hubs of influence and brand loyalists.  
 
I also think that small businesses can definitely benefit from monitoring and engaging. They have a fantastic opportunity to create a loyal community in their home town, and those connections can have endless potential. </description>
