The fact I'm learning Jen is most marketers don't have a social media strategy because they don't have a marketing strategy. They just do what everyone else does and rely on mediocre results to get them through. That doesn't cut it anymore.

Thanks for the comment and keep hugging those trees

You got to love someone who isn't afraid to call “bull-shit.” Which he did in his best Louisville accent

If you want to come to Seattle, there's no better excuse than Gnomedex. http://gnomedex.com/

I consider myself a SM purist that gets, understands and knows how to report ROI to increase the bottom line. I love talking about SM like it is one big tree huggin' love fest – but it is about keeping the company in the black & making money. ROI ROI ROI – but you won't get there without strategy – a key that most SMM peeps don't do (or they just mimic the one they did for their radio advertisers).
cheers!

Jason rocks and this is indicative of that reason. I always like his no nonsense approach and as a PR/Marketer he is never quite what you expect. Thanks for the recap! I need to get up there to Seattle again soon and if so will see you and Eric soon!
