Abstract

In this research paper, we will analyze how and why the integration of Social Media into the market and sales with the goal of the business success of IT companies is necessary. Nowadays, there is a substantial shift in power from the recent heavy industries that dominated the business of marketing, public relations, advertising, the media market (newspapers, magazines, radio stations, television, and advertising boards) to the users of the Internet who can communicate, update, control, compare, recommend, comment on products, services, and companies. We are informed by Social Media, which is also being updated by us.
