Better_Business_BureauJanuary is nearly over already and one question I have is, “How are you doing with your new years resolutions?”

According to the Better Business Bureau of Northern Colorado and Greater Wyoming  many small business owners resolved to increase their use of social media to promote their businesses online through sites like Facebook, MySpace and Twitter.

Backing this up is a recent survey by VerticalResponse, Inc. that reported 70 percent of small to medium sized businesses plan to increase their use of social media in 2010 and the report went on to state that 79 percent say they will not run television ads and 70 percent say they will not make radio buys.

If your among this growing group of business owners and need a little help to get started the BBB offers 5 Tips for Social Media Success.

How do you use social media to promote your business? How is it working for you?
