Editor's Notes

  • #5 You can't use SM the same way you use traditional advertising platforms and expect the same resultsThey don't work the same...Keep in mind today's consumer wants to build a relationship...how are relationships formed?They talk, exchange ideas, listen to each other...and the relationship forms. That's EXACTLY the process for online relationships!
