If you are a long time internet marketer then you probably understand the need of participating in social media and using rss in your marketing. Using email as a marketing tool has a tremendous effect but there can be a problem in getting through your information to your contacts. Spam filters and other things can prevent your message from reaching your contacts.

But you can avoid these things using rss and social media to break through clutter. Social media have less clutters, and when you send a message your message, your contacts can read it immediately. No more worrying if that message will fall under spam folders. Using rss and media, you can get your information right directly to your contacts.

While email is still a great tool for marketing, give your social networking site a try. If you have enough contacts, you’re likely to have more success getting your messages through than by just using email.
