There is definitely well-researched content within these pages so I am sure many readers will get a great deal of value from it.
The notion of brands embracing the various social media platforms and so creating an opportunity for engagement and conversations with their prospective customers, the importance of authenticity and building long term relationships with both the influencer and customer resonated indeed.
Planning, strategising and measuring ROI are also covered with examples.
However, I ddn’t quite click with the style of the author and struggled with the repetitive nature of some of the content, eg the author repeats that brands are not people and people connect to people (not brands) and discovered that my business already has many of the suggested strategies in place.
Perhaps the approach differs by continent as well, I’m unsure how some these approaches would work with the entrepreneurial and small businesses I deal with on a day-to-day basis.
With thanks to #NetGalley, HarperCollins Leadership and the author for my free advanced reader copy to review in exchange for an honest opinion
