How to Become a Social Media Marketer

Posted on: 07-22-2009 Posted in: Blog, Social Media Posted by: Ben Lloyd | Email the Author

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

Excellent topic. Go check it out at the McBru Deep <Tech> Dive blog
