Harness the power of social media and watch your business grow.


When used properly, social media can be an effective tool to help your business reach untapped, potential customers and stay connected to current ones.

In the new "Let’s Talk: Social Media for Small Business", respected author John Jantsch, of Duct Tape Marketing [2], distills the concept of social media into bite-sized concepts. With the help of this e-book, you’ll better understand how social networking tools can generate new business and capture the hearts and minds of new customers.

Check out these sections in particular:

* 5 tips for getting more from Facebook
* 5 tips for getting more from LinkedIn
* Twitter: How I use it and why I would use it
* Mining Twitter for leads, including using Twitter Advanced Search

One of my favorite parts is toward the end, where Jantsch provides a cool rundown of his own personal list of strategies for using Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and other social media.
