Turning your customers into advocates and marketers on behalf of your brand pays off a lot more when you’re selling $10,000 pieces of manufacturing equipment, than it does when you’re selling $3 cans of Pringles. What this means is that in reality, B2C and B2B marketers are largely using the same social tactics.

This puts significant pressure on email to be more relevant, because most of what would be contained in an email newsletter or special offer now happens faster and more personally within Facebook, Twitter or other social outposts.

Social media isn’t inexpensive, it’s different expensive. (I I think Charlene Li may have coined this one) The goal of social media is to turn customers into a volunteer marketing army. Social media allows big companies to act small again. I use this a lot. It’s not viral unless it is.
