A new social media metric
The new wave of social media punidtry has shifted from “engage” to “measure.” As part of that, tons of people have weighed in on how to select a social media firm/consultant, offering various tips and tricks. Well, here’s mine.
How active and enthusiastic is the person’s spouse?
You see, a lot of us have spouses that are nurses, builders or some other non-tethered profession. I think this is our way of finding balance. My wife is a pretty solid reality check usually.
So if we can get our spouse fired up about social media, we must be pretty good, right?
UPDATE: Yes, I know that not everybody has a spouse. That’s Ok, this can apply to moms, siblings or pets as well 🙂
My wife is pretty savvy with the web and it’s interesting to see her view on social media.
Are you a professional journalist? You write very well.
Right there with you. My wife is the least technical person on the planet. I have been trying to convince her to get me a computer for the TV and she just doesn’t get why the TV needs a computer. Some day.
