Social Media – the Next Frontier!

Buzz Marketing for Technology

Many BtoB organizations these days are spending time and money to listen to the conversations that are happening about their brand, which is a basic essential for any brand. It’s good to be able to see those conversations and have some indication whether they are positive, negative or neutral so you have your finger on the “pulse” of what is being said socially about your brand.

The Music Of Communications

Waxing UnLyrical

Guest post by Narciso Tovar. Music, beautiful music. Whenever I think of chamber music, I think of Haydn, Beethoven or Mozart – beautiful stuff, but something I *really* have to be in the mood for. Don’t get me wrong – their compositions have everything I look for in music: passion, depth and that element of surprise. But you’ll be hard-pressed to find me say something like, “Hey, the Dallas Symphony is going to have a chamber music series this year – we should check it out !”.

Facebook For Business Tip #7: Facebook Video

Firebelly

Video can be a great part of an online marketing mix. Many people upload and share YouTube videos, but there are also advantages to Facebook Video as well. (Note: I would not recommend using Facebook Video instead of YouTube. Upload to both places when relevant.). Facebook videos can be embedded into your blog or website. Yes, I know YouTube allows you to do this as well, but I personally prefer the minimalist look of embedded Facebook videos.

My First Week At The Search Agency pt2

Josh S Peters

Snack Pantry #1 at TSA. I didn’t post this yesterday because I decided I wanted to do it as a recap instead. Day 2 at an agency has brought with it some realizations about the difference in working styles, work load, and more. 1. The work style in an agency larger than my old basement office is a LOT faster. There is a lot more people asking for things and about things.

The Ugly Truth About Business Models And The Advertising Scapegoat

Twist Image

Here's a thought: when you're developing your business, think about the revenue model as you're developing your product or service. It's one of the more fascinating phenomena of the new media world: we have these runaway successes with people clamoring to join/use them, but there is no substantial revenue model in sight. You can cry that Search Engine Marketing is loosing its efficacy (I'd still argue that point), but you have to be able to respect what Google did.

Enchantment: The Art of Changing Hearts, Minds, and Actions

Koka Sexton

I am just about finished reading an amazing book. Enchantment was introduced to me by an email by Guy Kawasaki and I was happy to take an early peek at it. First thought was I was going to get an education on using social media to attract more people and build stronger communities, I was wrong. Of course the book does this but the messaging in the book speaks to more than just online and social interactions.

Jeff Esposito

On March 10, I’ll hop on a plane from Boston Logan airport and head across the country to Austin, Texas for this year’s SXSW conference.
