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
