Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Gail Martin has written a pretty nifty book of ideas. She starts with your marketing goals, and won my heart when she pointed out how important it is to IDENTIFY your marketing goals. So, before she even gets into Social Media Marketing, she points out the important of MARKETING in and of itself.
That's a welcome relief from many books that give you so much technology and so little thought-provoking, ideas. That said, her best chapter is the chapter on Twitter, which has both ideas about how and what to Tweet plus some great web links to really some very cool tools for Twitter. She also discusses Facebook vs. LinkedIn, and I got a kick out of her jokes about what sort of "friends" really are on Facebook. She nails the distinction between the two sorts of friendship - Facebook friendships vs. LinkedIn friendships.
Unfortunately, besides the chapter on Twitter, the book is weak on actual web resources and places to go to learn about social media. That's a pity because I think she knows more about the details than she lets on in this book. A fun, provocative, inexpensive read... So it will stay more on my beach reading list than my reference shelf, but still stay it will.
I teach Social Media marketing and SEO and you can find me (I love to hear comments about books, as I try to read and review as many as I can) through my profile or just Google Jason McDonald and SEO. Enjoy the book.
