About this Book
Social media is profoundly
disrupting the media and marketing industries by changing economics and
influencing models that have existed for generations.
Today, some bloggers and social news sites generate
more traffic than big-name mainstream media, and they do it at a tiny
fraction of the cost. Their highly outsourced publishing structure is a
new style of journalism and their approach to building audience and
awareness is unlike anything ever done in traditional media.
Paul Gillin’s New Influencers explores these forces, who these new influencers are, their goals
and motivations, and a look at the changes they have initiated. Gillin
offers strategies for both large and small organizations on how to
influence the influencers.
"In his column for BtoB magazine, Paul Gillin has given
business marketers a series of thought-provoking glimpses into the new
worlds of social media and user generated content. With The New
Influencers, Gillin unwraps the dynamics and its profound implications
behind this fast-evolving phenomenon. Using a variety of case studies,
he shows how “influencers” are changing
the marketing equation, and how the savviest marketers engage these
people, their customers and prospects."
—Ellis Booker, Editor, BtoB magazine
