Social media is an indispensable tool in increasing your customer reach, but have you thought about how social media design can improve your internal innovation?

Don’t just invest in beautiful social media for external use. You can set up private blogs so that your team members can share their insights from workshops, client meetings and other events. You can also set up a private messaging system using Evernote or HootSuite, or a private community via Facebook or Google+. This would help your employees discuss interesting articles and videos that are relevant to your business, while also encouraging team members to be creative. Social media will keep you up to date on developments in your industry.

Social media offers visually rich designs that can enrich the presentation of information. It makes sense to use social media to grow your team’s innovation.
