How to do social media marketing: bloggers, social networks, metrics, and more…
I found this webinar on YouTube.com the other day and thought I’d share. Chris Abraham and Sally Falkow present some great tips and simple straight forward ideas on how to develop a good social media marketing strategy. It’s almost an hour, but worth a listen no matter what business you are in. They give several real world examples of ‘how things were done’.
Webinar description from YouTube…
Sally Falkow of Expansion Plus and Chris Abraham of Abraham Harrison talk about the best practices in social media marketing.

I'm a maker...
Igor Stravinsky… One of my all time favorite composers. I’ve read almost everything written about him, and listened and studied most all of his music.

His music is sublime…
Too much noise? …
In my brain there are two things, intervals and rhythm…

Music, through its far reaching metaphorical powers can, and does, name the unnameable. This could easily be a conversation about Social Media marketing.

Alfred J. Sirleaf started the “Daily Talk” in the year 2000. This ‘anablog’ is the only news source for many residents of Monrovia, Liberia. Alfred’s news room is a small plywood shack where he publishes via large fold-out chalkboards facing the street. Every morning he posts news he’s found from around the city to the boards. The New York Times reported that the “Daily Talk” is the most widely read report in Monrovia.
I found Alfred’s Anablog via an article by Collin Douma.
