Chris Brogan uses his page to talk about his appearances and he really engages with his fans, answering their questions and providing value. Then he drives people to his blog to capture their e-mail address.
Gary is talking to 850,000 people just from ONE of his Twitter accounts!
THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE ARE ON TWITTER TALKING ABOUT BOOKS RIGHT NOW.  THEY ARE PASSIONATE READERS.  INTRODUCE YOURSELF.
Because Mitch has multiple books his fan page is about him, not just one book.  Speaking to 9,776 fans at once is a nice gig!

Editor's Notes

  1. There’s a social conversation going on right now, on line, about you or your company. People share recommendations, good experiences and bad. It’s important for you to be a part of the conversation both for reputation management AND to influence the conversation. Social media is FREE in terms of dollars but VERY EXPENSIVE in terms of your time, so it’s important for you to have a plan and use your time wisely.
  2. Another 250 fans on facebok
  3. I speak to about 11,000 people everyday from my various facebook, twitter, youtube and linkedin accounts.
