What is “Content Marketing?”
Basic Philosophy:
“You can make more friends in two months by becoming interested in other people than you can in two years by trying to get other people interested in you.”
Dale Carnegie

• Social Media: Is It The Next Dot.com Bubble?
– We haven’t yet figured out social media, especially among B2B companies.
– The hype and investment is greater than the results (so far).
– It’s not going away. (We need to figure it out.)
– It will be interesting to watch.
– My advice: Invest Cautiously!
