This is the third installment of my reflection on Social Buyerology.    The first article, Social Buyerology: Understanding Buyers in the Social Age reflected on the need for a new science of examining buyers in the social age.  Social Interaction Listening. Behavioral Listening.

From a B2B market view, the new social buyer ecosystem continues to undergo a rapid evolution.    While the social customer ecosystem in the B2C market space is still legions ahead of B2B, it behooves B2B executives to not fall prey to the false sense that the comparative differences means they have to pay little attention.

  All those who have clamored about social media and social technology dominance, hold on to your seats.    Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, Blogs, and other social media ranked near the bottom.    Blogs, WOM, Twitter, and Direct Mail were all ahead of Facebook in terms of influence.

  I think using the word social networking is actually too limiting and refers to just a few digital platforms such as LinkedIn and Twitter.  .  However the digital age has opened up networking to a new level of accessibility for peers, colleagues, and influencers to communicate.
