26. Social
Media/Social
Marke8ng
• Wikipedia:
Social
media
marke8ng
programs
usually
center
on
efforts
to
create
content
that
apracts
apen8on
and
encourages
readers
to
share
it
with
their
social
networks.
A
corporate
message
spreads
from
user
to
user
and
presumably
resonates
because
it
is
coming
from
a
trusted
source,
as
opposed
to
the
brand
or
company
itself.
• Leading
Results:
Social
Media
Marke8ng
is
about
helping
someone
get
to
know,
like
and
trust
you
through
their
own
ini8a8ves
as
they
look
for
a
solu8on
to
a
problem
they
have.
