With the world now operating in a digital era, which has seen a lot of people use social media platforms for so many purposes. Aside from the entertainment and information that goes on there, social media offers a whole lot of advantages to talented individuals. While some are still engrossed and carried away with the razzmatazz that goes on there, a whole lot of others are effectively utilizing it to their advantage by showcasing their talent

With so many CEOs, Business Owners, Music executives, etc, on different social media platforms, it has made it possible for people to connect with a whole lot of these top influential personalities that can be pivotal to their career. Just recently, music executive and CEO of Mavin Records Don Jazzy signed a new artist by the name “Boy Spyce” to his record label. Before this artist got signed, he was always consistently uploading his music and music videos on the Instagram platform showcasing his musical prowess.

While he was doing all these, he kept tagging top personalities who he felt would be of help to his career. Despite not being a superstar yet, he already had the admiration of quite a good number of Instagram folks who were rooting for him to get noticed by a top music executive. Grace recently shined on him as he got signed by top music executive Don Jazzy to his record label. One thing I know for sure is that this young lad knew the power of the media, which I believe was what spurred him to keep showcasing his talent on the platform with the hope of possibly landing a deal that eventually came.

Gone are the days when Bakers, Artists, Musicians, Fashion designers, models, chefs, etc, who wanted to be famous, would use traditional platforms such as Tv and Radio to get noticed. Favorably, a lot of young people are embracing social media, a tool that has led to the success of some famous stars. From Twitter, Instagram, Tik Tok, Youtube, Linkedin, and other social media sites, young people are effectively using it to showcase their talents which eventually gets them noticed.

In this digital era where connecting with anyone has been made easy, it is pertinent to say that anyone who is talented and is not utilizing social media to showcase their talent is selling his or herself short. They are missing out on a whole lot of life-life-changing opportunities. On Instagram, there are a whole lot of talented and funny Nigerians who are consistently making comedy skits which has given them a source of livelihood.

Gone are the days when one who aspires to go into the comedy world will have to attend comedy auditions to hopefully win and get recognized. Just posting their comedy videos on different social media platforms can give them the fame they desire. There are different social media platforms where one can showcase their skills.

For someone who has great cooking skills, with the intention to teach a whole lot of people, Youtube is a very ideal platform to do that, because it enables longer videos. Not only is social media used for showcasing talent, so many people also use it to showcase their brands. The role of social media is very important in building brands.

Social media increases the amount of exposure a brand receives with increased traffic. A lot of young people have gotten the secret of how advantageous the use of social media is to showcase talent. Also not only are individuals using it to showcase talent, but there are also CEOs, Business executives, and the likes who are on different social media platforms in search of talented individuals. Social media has a whole lot of benefits, I believe everyone was born with talent,  it will be ideal for them to showcase it for the world to see.
