Mark’s plain-talk story telling is a social networking strategy. It’s the first I’ve heard that actually resonates with me, even after hearing so-called social networking marketing experts pontificate about it. The strategy’s pretty simple and makes sense. I had questions about how to make a plan that makes use of them all (for myself and my clients). Mark’s done more here in this little video to advance the cause of social networking and media than anything else I’ve seen and heard. Bravo.

Ditto, Andre. I loved how Mark kept it simple. His simple cartoon sent out over these sophisticated means gets results.
I’m a print rep up in Maine and we’ve done the usual – mailings 4 or 5 times a year kind of thing, but these small bits / small hits seem to be a much better (and less expensive) way to go. With better results.

Thanks for posting this video. It’s very straightforward and makes the relationship of various social networking activities make sense.
