There are quite a few products available that give instructions for using social media marketing sites but I don't see many that get the whole picture. Online business owners who want to use social marketing to grow their businesses need to be aware that the focus should be on the content, and making it great enough that it will get passed along.

Great article. I like how you explain that you need to focus on great content. Most people build sales pages and blast their friends on facebook to buy their stuff. Creating a buzz on the backend is not only more efficient, but more profitable in the long run.

Excellent article. There are tons of products and resources out there that claim to teach Social Marketing, but, they have no idea what they are talking about in most of them. Glad to see people out there that..."GET IT"

I think you're right on target. The key is producing valuable content, then getting that content in front of the people who will value it most.
