How to Become a Social Media Marketer

Turns out – you may not realize it, but you already are a social media marketer.

Just read a great entry over at our partner McClenehan Bruer’s blog & newsletter titled “You Are a Social Media Marketer (Almost)“. The main takeaway I got from the article was:

“Most social media tools that work today in deep tech have analogues in the marketing work you’ve always done… The key difference is this: social media opens up an intimacy and ongoing dialogue not found in traditional marketing communications.”

The article goes on to discuss some key social media tools & tactics and talks about what’s the same and what’s new for marketers, and presents specific examples for:

• Blogger relations
• Corporate blogging
• Social media networks
• Microblogging
