Social media is no longer a trend aimed only at capturing the interest of Gen-Y consumers – it has gone mainstream. In fact, one of the largest growing segments in this area is people over 50 years of age. The use of social media as a business tool are spearheaded by insurance companies and financial institutions. Growing the size and age of the social media’s audience, we can’t afford not to understand how to leverage it to grow and strengthen business industries.
