5.0 out of 5 stars Indespensible Resource Plus Get More Resources Online, May 3, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Facebook Marketing: An Hour a Day (Paperback)
Any user of Facebook needs this book. If you are a small business owner or active online promoting your brand it really helps to have a guide and a shortcut to being effective online.

I first met Mari Smith online as I was getting my profile and fan pages up and operating.

Since then I found that she is THE leader in anything Facebook and is accessible from her fan page to help with any updates or questions that might come up.

What I liked about Facebook Marketing An Hour a Day is that it gives you a background on Facebook, defines it, and then helps guide you into developing a strategy and how to measure it.

In addition it also teaches you how to use pages and groups, how to use ads, and advanced tactics--so it is great for the average user or the small business person or online marketing teams.

I selected the Kindle edition because of the rapidly changing nature of social media so I could get it right away.

Things in social media change so fast (just like Facebook's new revamps over the last two weeks) so I do encourage you to download and begin using it right away.

This book is well worth the investment--go get it now and then go find MariSmith on Facebook!

5.0 out of 5 stars Better Than Many $500 Courses I've Bought, May 7, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Facebook Marketing: An Hour a Day (Paperback)
I heard one of the authors give an awesome presentation at a conference last year, so I was eagerly awaiting this book. Fortunately it didn't disappoint! Lots of great specific, actionable how-to instructions -- just what I need to get my Facebook marketing going. In fact, the book is better than many courses I've bought from other marketing experts for $500+ (and some of those were pretty good too). Highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars A guided tour to Facebook mastery, May 4, 2010
By John Jantsch "Duct Tape Marketing" (Kansas City, MO United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Facebook Marketing: An Hour a Day (Paperback)
Facebook is so hot right now that businesses are jumping in without a plan or clue. This book is the kind of tool you need to dig in and create a strategy and master the technical stuff that can create so much frustration for the business owner already strapped for time.

The book will also help marketers demonstrate to CEOs and department heads reluctant to explore Facebook and other social media platforms how to treat Facebook as in integrated part of the marketing whole.
