Social Media Strategy Reviews

"Finally, a social media text that combines liberal arts and social science intellectualism with practical, real-world tips for success in this crucial aspect of professional communications. Its value goes beyond the classroom - everything in the book will resonate with and be useful to PR pros already engaged in social media management."

-- Ray Begovich

"This text represents a new era in instructional material for Social Media. Not only does it promote marketing in general, but it serves as a practical guide for analysis and productivity as related to current social media applications."

-- Pamela Hill, MLIS

"I like the strategy approach because social media is often perceived to be spur-of-the-moment with little planning; the more that myth is dispelled, the better. Social media is a communication channel and needs as much thought and planning as any other communication medium. Accepting and embracing change are very important when working with the fluid and changing nature of social media."

-- Peggy O'Neill-Jones, Ed.D.

"This text, which is adaptable for students and professionals, will assist students with grasping the thought strategy behind social media in addition to the "nuts and bolts" of platforms used. In other words, it's two tiered: the foundation of strategy and how to execute it."

-- L. Simone Byrd

"A much needed summary of social media concepts and platforms. The title succeeds in introducing students to critical and strategic thinking necessary to inform social media choices. It has application in public relations writing and campaign planning courses."

-- Gregory G. De Blasio

"Clampitt's social media text makes a valuable addition to organizational social media curriculum. The text effectively merges the academic with the professional; the conceptual with the applied; and strategy with tactics."

-- Melissa D. Dodd

"This is the best approach I have ever seen for this course."

-- Pj Forrest

"The strategic content of the book lays a quality groundwork that allows a myriad of applications."

-- Dr. Bill Mills
