Hi Christina,
Thank you for commenting! I am interested in what exactly you mean by social media reducing connections between people – my experience has been the complete opposite. Though, the connections begun over social media are certainly cemented further by meeting in person. I completely agree with you in terms of accessibility – there is something so right to me about this dissolution between high and mighty brand and consumer.

I think it’s interesting how social media has changed the very essence of how any business is conducted and how job descriptions are being revamped. Selling products and penetrating the market has never been this easy! One of the criticisms I have with the mixture of social media and business is losing personal connections with your customers and with yourself too. In a way, you are fully immersed in social media as is the person you are trying to target, that no one takes the time to get to know each other.

What’s so great about social networking websites is that it puts fashion houses like Chanel and La Rok on the same level of accessibility. Even though one is more exclusive than the other, being a friend on Facebook or following them on Twitter is almost as good as being in the “know.” Fashion has done a great job in integrating social media into its public relations and marketing strategies. This reaches a more diverse set of people who may not have been interested in fashion before.
