Idea Book for Marketing, and also for Social Media
Marketing August 26, 2010
By Jason L. Mcdonald
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
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.
