"These myths are ultimately holding some social media professionals back," said Asad, who also owns four blogs.

Read the following myths to see how Asad can help you jumpstart your social media presence for your business today.

1. Social Media Is Saturated – Many people think everyone is on social media sites, but the truth is these mediums have yet to explode. Maximize your efforts by using social media and other marketing tools.

2. Social News Websites Aren't Thriving – Reddit, Digg and other social news sites have staying power because they provide a sense of community and they allow users to truly express themselves.

3. You Need a Team of Experts – You don't need a certificate or a degree in social media. You need drive and the discipline to study the trends.

4. Success Is Measured in Quantity – As a business owner you wear a lot of hats, which requires a lot of your time. Fortunately, you don't have to spend excessive hours on social media sites in order to be a success.

5. Use it Just for Advertising – Social media is a mechanism to connect and engage your audience! Offer your audience valuable information and become the expert they can rely on.

6. Social Media Can Be Used Alone – You still need a website to be a success on social media sites. There are too many limitations involved if you let your business only rely on social platforms.

7. You Can't Track Performance on Social Sites – There are many ways for your business to track how effective your social media campaign is, including the number of true followers you really have and how engaged your followers are.

8. Blogging Isn't as Effective as Social Sites – You need every cog in your wheel to have an effective social strategy; you need a sound business, a website, social media sites and a marketing strategy.

9. You Need a Presence on Every Social Network – You don't need to have a presence on every social site. You do need to have a presence on the site that is conducive to your products and services.

10. Social Media Is the New Human Interaction – Social media cannot replace the need to interact with your customers. You have to make yourself available to talk to your customers whenever you can.
