Social Media Myths

Pam Dyer of Pamorama had some interesting things to say about social media and some of the myths associated with it. This is an older post from back in January but she has a good point in stating that a lot of people think of social media as cheap or free. Social media may be free to use but incorporating it into a businesses practices and integrating it into a marketing plan is far from cheap. What do you think?

Second Post!

While trying to get the hang of this posting thing, I found out several of my friends are frequent bloggers. They had some great ideas to help me really get started writing this thing.

I found another great resource for PR blogging recently at Ogilvy. Betsy Lowther wrote an article on using Social Media for Social Good, citing the Pepsi Refresh project. Good read!

For my first blog piece, I'd like to write about one of the first public relations blogs I found. Public Relations Blogger is an excellent source of ideas and tips for new PR professionals. I found myself drawn to the post on PR myths, the most important myth being that any PR is good. Like the author says, just ask BP if any PR is good!
