The advantage that Google + has over other networks is that you can very simply target your posts and communicate with 'closed' group or circle of people.


Your interaction with them will be visible only to those individuals or group of people that you chose to be held within that particular circle.


Your circles may consist of High value clients, ex-customers, business acquaintances or work colleagues, the choice is yours on how you group your contacts and what name you give to the circle.


Its your choice which circle to place your contacts in and how you communicate to them.
