Awesome tool for tumbling flow of publications

Tumblr is very suitable for presentation of free flow information. This includes creating blogs for specific topics or a stream of stories. It is also good for displaying a selection of photos.

Tumblr doesn't work very well if you want to categorize your information in multiple sections on the same page.

Great way to start conversations, but the limited feature set and scope hampers its impact.

Tumblr can be complicated when it comes to using it in a work setting. With the privacy options being somewhat limited, you will want to make sure that your staff are only sharing information that they are comfortable with in the public realm. You'll need to put some effort into designing an appropriate policy that covers the use of Tumblr and what content can be shared.

If you're simply finding a way to engage staff and perhaps show outsiders what it is like to work at your organization, it can be used quite effectively, but you have to be mindful of how involved it gets.

Great for reaching liberal teens and young adults. Not recommended for B2B use. Ever.

Tumblr is well suited for sharing media and short form content to a liberal, teen, and young adult audience. However, it's not well suited for B2B marketing. Also, if editorial control of comments and replies is important, another platform may be more appropriate. If your target demographic is center or conservative, you're likely to have better success elsewhere.

Preparing for a creative meeting makes Tumblr a very helpful tool to ensure that participants are ready to work on the same task. Being able to contribute in advance saves folks a lot of time agreeing on "look and feel" issues, and allows greater productivity with in a team of like-minded professionals.

It's well suited to promote retail, restaurant, and music venues. It can give potential clientele a sense of not only of your products, but the atmosphere and ambiance that your business reflects as well. I do feel that it is limited in the relevance that it has to certain types of businesses, and like many social media platforms there is more quantity and less quality on Tumblr. However, this could be an asset in that your particular business's Tumblr could have an opportunity to stand out from the crowd. Before using Tumblr to promote your business, its key to see if your clientele and the type of clientele that you are trying to attract would respond positively to Tumblr, otherwise it would be a waste of employee time.
