Previously we noted that your brand’s Facebook updates were pretty much ignored and poked a bit of fun at those who considered that a “shocker.” Well, more research continues to prove what we’ve been arguing for ages.
Mathew Ingram at GigaOm recently (re) shared some data from PEW Research Center, and added his own commentary on how media companies are still “doing it wrong” on Twitter.
With the launch of Google+ pages for businesses I can tell many brands (and marketing professionals) had the same reaction: seriously, another channel to manage?
My gut is good for digesting food, telling me when I’ve eaten too much, and groaning loudly when I’m about to get hungry. Never, despite efforts to the contrary, has it helped me pick stellar stocks, win a poker tournament, or find the perfect product-market fit.
This week, I was in New York attending the 2nd Social Media World Forum North America. I attend and speak at many marketing and technology industry events throughout the year and a majority of my experiences are great.
As both a blogger and digital marketing professional I sit on both sides of the fence when it comes to PR. One example of this? Companies send me pitches and try to encourage me to talk about their brand.
