"Takes a fresh approach to teaching the ins and outs of social media. With the case studies and various approaches, it's a comprehensive guide to making social media work for your business. It also goes so far as to illustrate how social media success translates to business success and sales, which is sometimes difficult to explain to clients (and ourselves). Understanding Social Media is perfect for someone who recognizes the benefits of social media marketing and wants to take it to the next level and learn to deliver and measure results."
