The document compares the traditional publishing process to Open Road's alternative process. The traditional process involves multiple parties like agents and publishers and can take up to a year. Open Road's process streamlines this by removing unnecessary steps and shortening the cycle time to around 120 days.
The rest of the document discusses how Open Road uses new marketing paradigms like connecting authors directly with readers through various online communities, social networks, blogs, videos and photos to build authentic relationships. This allows authors to promote and sell their books outside the traditional publisher and retailer model.
#VCBuzz Chat with ViralContentBuzz Co-Founder Gerald WeberAnn Smarty
Gerald Weber answers questions on where VCB started and where it's going. He lists most useful features of the platform helping you to promote your content effectively! The full chat transcript is here: http://viralcontentbuzz.com/index.php/viral-content-buzz-twitter-chat-with-gerald-weber/
The document discusses creating an effective social media strategy. It explains how content, context, connection, and community have changed with social media. An ideal social media interaction allows for connection rather than just driving actions. The strategy should integrate online and offline efforts. Various social media tools are listed, including blogs, RSS feeds, social news/bookmarking sites, social networks, and their examples.
Women are more likely than men to use social media on mobile devices. While women tend to rely more on social media overall, men are more inclined to use social platforms like Facebook while in the bathroom. The document provides tips for using Facebook and Pinterest, such as hiding content from non-fans on Facebook through cover images, and thoroughly tagging pins on Pinterest to increase sharing. It also shares the fact that Google+ is gaining over 600,000 new users daily and its +1 button is used billions of times.
Instagram Event Management&Diffusion Via PinterestVincent Tervooren
This document discusses managing Instagram content from Swatch-sponsored sports events. It recommends identifying an event hashtag and spreading its use among athletes and the public.

This board's RSS feed allows the curated images to be automatically published and displayed on social media and event/brand websites, spreading visibility of the Swatch brand.
This document discusses leveraging social networking for your career. It provides tips on why and how to participate in social networking sites like LinkedIn and Twitter. The key benefits mentioned are making serendipitous connections, collaborating with others, engaging experts, advancing your initiatives and causes, and using it as a new form of resume. It provides dos and don'ts for participating, such as being authentic and informative, responding to comments, and not stealing content. Resources mentioned include Sun's social networking guidelines, communities, and blogs. The document encourages participants to start simply, immerse themselves in conversations, and find mentors outside their normal circles.

*Be a CREATOR and Storyteller. Take, edit, and share YOUR pictures and stories!*
My kickoff: 1. WE have the tools and social networks to CREATE and connect/share our stories with others. 2. Our brains are set up largely to process visuals over text.
So, why are we as educators largely consumers of media and why do we still rely mainly on text in education?
Time to SHIFT.
SHIFT to visual thinking and sharing of our stories. We can spread the POSITIVE stories in education and help other educators and kids.
Before educators can encourage kids to do the same, it's best if they have DONE it themselves!
Our focus was educator learning, doing, creating, and sharing.
Our goal was to take pictures, edit them with different apps, and then share them to a group page on my Flickr account--via my Flickr email. Every person on Flickr gets an email address to use for emailing pictures.
Many educators in the session had not edited pictures and said they rarely took pictures and told the stories of their edu-journeys with kids!
By the end of the session, we enjoyed seeing the pictures of our conference PHOTWALK pop up on my Flickr page. One person used WordFoto and many of us liked it so much, we bought it, too. :)
I showed my blog, Instagram, Twitter media stream, and Flickr account to show examples of the power of telling stories.

This document discusses how story mapping can help development teams maintain the big picture view of a project. It describes how user stories are typically written from sources like user research and product goals. The document advocates moving to a more user-centered approach where stories are written in the third person based on personas developed from user research.

UFC is a rapidly growing sport popular among early to middle aged men. The UFC brand offers sponsors tremendous exposure to their target demographic through multi-year sponsorship agreements. Sponsoring the UFC would allow AXE to promote its products to millions of viewers worldwide and fuel significant brand growth by connecting with UFC's largely male, young adult fan base.
The document provides a cybersafety checklist, advising readers to take steps like not posting personal information online, adjusting privacy and security settings on social media to limit what is publicly visible, using strong and unique passwords, avoiding suspicious websites, and contacting authorities if victim of a crime.
