Keep track of the amount of time your social media outreach people spend on engagement. How do you gauge "appropriate" time to spend on social media engagement? The "2011 Social Media Marketing Industry Report" indicates that 58 percent of the more than 3,000 marketers surveyed devote more than six hours per week to social media, with 15 percent spending more than 20 hours per week using social media for business.
