Posted by: Michelle MacPhearson In: Social Media Myth ()

The Social Media Myth is now live, and I’m adding this post to the blog so you can leave your feedback.

I’d love to know:

  • What your three biggest takeaways were from the report
  • How you plan to change you approach to social media marketing having read The Social Media Myth

Your comments make a HUGE difference in the kind of information I put out - in fact, it’s comments like yours that inspired “The Social Media Myth” in the first place!

I released The Myth to my Twitter friends first, here’s some initial feedback:

A Second Report Added

Posted by: Michelle MacPhearson In: Social Media Myth ()

“The Social Media Myth” is completed, but I’ve decided to take a day or two and compile some extra information into a second, bonus report.

The Myth covers the one mistake folks make, over and over again, in their social media marketing.  The second bonus report, called “The Social Media Elixir” gives you top level data that I’ve been gathering for about a year now on which social media sites are the most effective for marketing online.  It dovetails perfectly with The Myth and it should get your jumpstarted into social media marketing without delay.

So, the release of the whole package will be a few days coming, as I get this second report put together.

Coming Soon - The Social Media Myth!

Posted by: Michelle MacPhearson In: Social Media Myth ()

Having distributed Social Media Daily (and updated it for 2009) I get a lot of feedback from folks on their use of social media.

And more often than not, I find people have one thing wrong with they way they approach social media as part of their marketing toolkit.  It’s common across the board, and this misunderstanding is the reason why so many people aren’t getting the kind of success they want online.

The good news is that’s it’s a pretty simple concept.  It’s just unfortunate the “guru’s” haven’t mentioned, let alone, taught it.

Right now I’m putting the finishing touches on a report that will SMASH the social media marketing “myth’ and get you fast-tracked with Web 2.0 marketing.

I’ll let you know as soon as it’s ready!
