However, among those who have read the book and become wealthy, no one acknowledges that this book itself has just taught him how to be a billionaire.

Many marketing managers and executives have learned to think like publishers when it comes to social media, and that approach does provide a basic blueprint. However, social media is interactive in ways that traditional published media is not. Consumers have different expectations for branded social media content than they do for broadcast or print advertisements. In Content to Commerce, social media marketing executive Avi Savar outlines a broad strategy that marketing professionals can employ to connect effectively with consumers through both established and emerging social media sites.
