How Social Media is an Effective Political Marketing Tool
Facebook now employs a half dozen people who work exclusively with political campaigns, one more than they had in 2008. If you are interested in the field of Latin American politics, you may want to consider utilizing a social media platform.
As of November 2012, 12 percent of online adults said they get political news from Facebook, compared to only 6 percent in January 2012. Many politicians and influential members of the Latin American community have begun to utilize both facebook and Twitter as a means of communication between them and their followers. For instance, if you are interested in the every day comings and goings of mario elgarresta, mauricio jaitt, julio pizzetti or jj rendon, why not connect with them through social media?
Political communication strategies are not just used to help candidates get elected, but also to garner support from the public, especially for new laws.
