Your business needs YOU to have a personal social media strategy in 2011
I remember the day I purchased my first Fast Company magazine. The cover story featured a piece by management consultant Tom Peters called: The Brand Called You. That article inspired me to build and sell a web development company and invest in several other businesses.
Almost 15 years later, Tom Peters’ call to action is more relevant than ever before. Social media tools coupled with wireless mobile technologies are revolutionizing our communications landscape. And it’s changing how we market and advertise our businesses, as well as how we engage, support and retain our customers.
Business has always been about relationships and it is no less so today. What is changing profoundly today is how and where we conduct those relationships.

As for the awful ones – and there are some awful ones – I’m not even going there. There, I just saved you lots of time.
But before you head over to YouTube to check out more, you should watch this one.
I’ve gotta go get me some bodywash now.
