On 27th September at our Advertising & Marketing Hub at Facebook, digital marketing agency, SYZYGY, hosted Cuddles or Funnels: Social Engagement vs Social Commerce - a lively panel debate which asked where exactly *is* social media's sweet spot?

Is it the warm embrace of social CRM and two-way engagement with a share-happy audience that powers the business relationship and growth? Or is it an effective sales channel with Finance Director-pleasing ROI and a treasure trove of targeting data?

L2 and Buddy Media recently revealed the results of their second annual Facebook IQ Index®, with Macy's, Sephora, Lancôme, and Michael Kors ranked as "Geniuses".

The Index measures digital aptitude of 100 iconic luxury and prestige brands across Beauty, Fashion, Specialty Retail, and Watches & Jewellery on Facebook, the world's largest social media platform.

Finally, proof that social media marketing isn't just a case of cranking out a few Tweets, checking Facebook walls and Pinning pictures of shoes.

A post on Business Insider, reveals an infographic - and you know how we like a pretty picture - from Buddy Media's recent product launch, showing just some of the complexity of the current social media landscape.
