Catchy title. Seems to be doing the trick. We're going to see lot's of experiments on Twitter and Facebook for a while. Free Sham-Wow? :-) Jack Dorcey, Twitter's co-founder was on TV this past weekend and talked about their future including monetization. One of the most interesting parts was his differentiation between ’search’ and ‘discovery’. Every marketer should pay attention since today's marketing isn't just about pushing products. How can you take advantage of the real-time discovery capabilities of Twitter for your business? Market research? Customer support? Lead generation? I smell more experiments coming!

Jim, you can be successful on social media marketing IF… you make your video brandable with your networks I mean is you should try to put some trademarks on your videos/audios in order for them to prosper.

Nice test and evaluation about that bullshit media marketing.

Being anonymous and effective social marketing can't really go hand in hand. As far as social marketing being effective it depends a lot on your business. As far as the article you've written, excellent and educational. Greenie's last blog post..Almost Time For Picnics And Fun

@adam, yeah, you’re right, but I think you get my point in the context?

@blantonious, thanks, I will.

@Phyllis, being anonymous online seems pointless to me., right?

@coachdeb, It was way before 2 years ago. I remember I wrote the first ebook on how to make money blogging years and years ago and every hated me for it. Was called blogstoriches.

Great video! I agree with the branding advice because especially online, where there is alot of anonymity, you must make your presence very real and prominent. Phyllis Vance's last blog post..What are the ingredients in Oram Plus gum disease treatment?

Great video Jim. I certainly feel you need to build a brand for yourself especially when your building businesses online. That way when people see something from you they associate that with you and your products or your character. Really strong things when doing business in the social market place.

Keep em coming.

I agree with all you said about not pushing stuff out to you, but just interacting w/ others. It’s a stretch to say that they must “Type your name” every time they @ you however. Snitter, twhirl, even the twitter’s site there is a button you can click to put the “@acmePhoto” automatically in the reply to box.

Nice video for sure, I found you through someone on twitter posting a link to this video (only on you tube)
