s is a book I've been waiting for since 2010It answers three questions I was dying to know:
1. WHY use social media
2. WHY care and engage in 2.0 networking online or off?
3. HOW to engage authentically, strategically but practically
JUST NAILED IT - If you are a social media skeptic,
this is the read for you.

A tiny bonus for much of my personal network, the author lives in Toronto Canada and rather than all the New York, San Fran, LA references of my favourite authors he cites examples I can totally relate to.
Things I loved about this book:
- Tearing up old world marketing: "Buy or Goodbye"
- Gloriously dispelling the tyranny of the "Free Consultation" myth
- 100 tips on better twitter use for results
- The best argument to kill cold calling and what to do instead
I don't know why but he has a couple mentions about how to market and network for artists scattered around the book, it's a hard market and I found the stories and
examples fascinating. Very business applicable.
I love that he doesn't focus on one medium for social media, this is a lesson in 2.0 engagement that goes far beyond JUST Twitter.
I got GOOSEBUMPS reading the chapter "Twitter Vs. Facebook Vs. LinkedIn" and truly appreciated that he cites the good, bad and tips for using each.

Me personally, I totally back Darkhorse Coffee and think the author missed their point. Jerks with laptops terrorize the coffee shop business and I for one applaud any business who stands up to them.
Networking masters Starbucks have solved this problem
with new zones for networking, working and socializing - genius!
Are you doing a talk on social media?
The "seven deadly sins of social media" need to work their way into your PowerPoint or Prezi
Discussion of how to use newsletters and the power of pull in 2011 was brilliant and so helpful to much of the business my network engages in for both nonprofit and seeking profit.
I shudder to see that he nailed the marketing essence of the coffee war in Canada, my family and network went through the same experience. I would love to hear from others who read the book if they agree.
His story of why YouTube is NOT NOT NOT the place to go viral is a fascinating business case study, along with his personal story of botched internet stardom is what makes this book a must read.
Also of high value a powerful story, study and recommendations for booth-dwellers at conferences! If you're an avid exhibitor, get this book.

Never cold call, never cold network, never go to an event cold. Stay warm and succeed!
This book is something anyone who is curious about what 3-dimensional marketing looks like in 2011. And if you want to succeed in 2012? Get it. Period.
I leave you with a good business interview on UnMarketing

If you are part of my fundraising network, you'll find great value in this talk at last year's "Digital Leap" conference organized by the ever-awesome Stephen Thomas team:
