“How can I get that”- Will discuss Challenges in Social Commerce & Global opportunity for local Creative Industry
Update we’ll discuss the challenges of distribution services at our Google hangout during InternetWeekNy.com
We like, love, share, pinned & follow to our heart’s or fingers content! Now all that’s left is answer the question I’ve seen in so many comment sections- “how can I get that?”
Social media promises the Creative and Artisans to Increase their earnings and help build their communities and economies! I’ve long suspected that the reality keeps falling short! I fell in love with the cake in this image… a night spent “googling” and I’m still trying to discover not just who created it but “how can I get that” and from comments in the posts, so are many!
Will sites pop up promising to help you sell what on these via these curation tools, there are challenges. It’s easy when the item is from larger mass produced standard product line! The problem is those are NOT what my networks likes, pins, shares follows or posts.
So how do we get our hands on our Social desires!
