You are absolutely right. What's worse is when they neglect their profiles because of turnover or access issues and their page is hijacked by spammers! Thank you Roscoe Props for the comment!

I see the same situations with SEO. Small business owners have tried taking on the task because they feel as if they can wing it. What really happens is they waste time, when they can be making money. Paying someone to handle your social media within your company is surfacing more and more, everyday.

Bullseye, Charity - you get what you pay for and if you add two hours of work to someone's daily rountine, you had better be prepared to subtract two hours of other work. And even then, as you point out, "How will they be trained?". With the size of the SM audience, we just can't afford to wing it anymore - we need trained professionals representing us. PS - thanks for the CallSource mention :-) Sounds strangely familiar . . . oh yeah – this is the same math used to justify saving money on painting and cleaning vacant apartments by having the maintenance team do it (with no overtime, of course – we’ll give them “comp time”) instead of hiring more staff or using a contractor.

In order for the tools to be maximized there simply cannot be a set "time" of day to use the channels. It would be as unreasonable as day traders just arriving at the 9am bell and then going home. The tools are always on and need a strategic approach by companies to use them for their maximum potential. Very practical approach.
