Social Media Marketing - More Than Facebook And Twitter
A lot of marketers continue an unhealthy obsession with spending time purely in Facebook and Twitter. I see it again and again. And while Facebook and Twitter absolutely should have a place within a larger digital strategy , your marketing does not start and end with them.A study published in 2010 surfaced a startling statistic, “75 percent of employers say their business has no formal policy instructing employees on the appropriate use of social networking sites on the job.” The report, “ Employer Perspectives on Social Networking ,” compiled data from 34,000 businesses in 35 countries. Does your organization have a formal policy regarding employee use of social media? Perhaps better asked, does your organization offer training, guidelines, and insights to help employees excel in new media on behalf of your business? In the same study, 63% of employers that employed social networking policies reported that those policies improved productivity.

Which Social Sites Are Best for Which Marketing Outcomes? [INFOGRAPHIC]
By now, many marketers have dabbled in social media —launching contests, promotions, and branding campaigns on Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and blogs. But what many marketers fail to understand is that "social" is not the same as "sharing." Simply slapping up social media content and hoping it works to build brand awareness and drive sales is not enough. Many brands fail to get maximum exposure for their social media campaigns because they don't take the extra step to activate viral sharing of their content. And if marketers don't identify their key influencers and motivate them to share, they're missing out on the real promise of social media: Social content works best when it's shared. People who visit a campaign link after it's shared with them convert at up to four times the rate of those who just happen upon it, according to some industry research.

Why Social Media Is a Better Investment than SEO
This guest post is by Gary Arndt of Everything-Everywhere.com As a blogger, you probably do not have the luxury of having a staff of people to work for you. As such, your time is very valuable and you need to spend it where it will do the most good. We have reached a point in late 2010 where the work required to generate traffic for a normal blog via search engines is much greater than that required to generate an equal amount of traffic via social media.The 5 Critical Social Media Skills You Need to Disperse | Social Media Book | Social Media Consulting - Convince & Convert

How To Track Down & Scout Out Influencers
You’ve heard it a lot. The key to your social dominance lies in your ability to connect with your brand influencers and get them to pass on your content and their networks just how great you are. It’s well-intentioned advice but it means nothing if you don’t know who these influencers are and how to go about identifying them. That’s the tricky part. So how do you do it? Who are these magical influencers that you should be reaching out to?Mirror, mirror, on the wall — who's the fairest of them all? That's the question most economists are asking. Many answer China, a few holdouts contend: America. I'd like to tell you a very different story, that clashes with both orthodoxies. Economic might isn't shifting.
What's Your Strategy for the Next Decade? - Umair Haque - Harvard Business Review
Apologies - today, I'm going to make you grind through a boring intro to get to the good stuff. The macro crisis is entering it's next to last - and perhaps climactic - phase: the true costs of business as usual must slowly be grappled with. As Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac melt down, it is taxpayers who are bailing out shareholders - the Treasury is now reduced to intervening directly in the financial markets: so much for hundred of years of laissez faire economics. Why are Fannie and Freddie being bailed out? Because they must be. As Brad Setser has pointed out , much of the debt they ensure is held by emerging markets like China and Russia.
