In the days and months to come, we consider where the economy will take us. Many look to history for similar stories and outcomes. Looking at the stock market crash in 1929 and the Great Depression that followed might be a stretch to compare to, but not entirely unhelpful in searching for post-downturn business and consumer habits. One habit that will resonate with many is the frugality of our mothers and grandmothers who endured the Depression. Prior to the current recession, many consumers had a ‘spend even if you don’t have it’ attitude. We may have laughed at the seemingly excessive spirit of post – Depression penny pinching. However, more and more people are becoming quite selective in their spending, both in their businesses and personal lives. You may have heard it said that “value is in vogue” and people want to know that their money is being well spent and invested.
We have seen many new innovations to increase efficiency and value in our lives where time is money. Smart phones, touch pads and other portable devices have become a staple in our world which encourages productivity in every area of our lives. Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn have contributed to this search for making the absolute most of our time and money. Recognizing the importance of social media in today’s economy is key to adapting and moving forward.
“…there has been an explosion in new social media tools that create more ways to communicate in real-time with greater amounts of Web users than ever before.” -Lon Safko, websitemagazine.com
