A Ragan/NASDAQ OMX Corporate Solutions survey of 2,714 communicators uncovered how organizations' social media teams are structured. This infographic, created by Go-Gulf.com, highlights a few interesting facts about those who completed the questionnaire:

• Only 27% have a dedicated social media team. (It would be interesting to know the size of the companies and industries.) 
• 42% have only one person working on social media.
• Only 22% plan to hire more people to manage social media next year.
• 25% use interns for social media work.
