Resumen del Editor

Corporate executives struggle to harness the power of social technologies. Twitter, Facebook, blogs, YouTube are where customers discuss products and companies, write their own news, and find their own deals but how do you integrate these activities into your broader marketing efforts? It's an unstoppable groundswell that affects every industry -- yet it's still utterly foreign to most companies running things now.When consumers you've never met are rating your company's products in public forums with which you have no experience or influence, your company is vulnerable. In Groundswell, Josh Bernoff and Charlene Li explain how to turn this threat into an opportunity.In this updated and expanded edition of Groundswell, featuring an all new introduction and chapters on Twitter and social media integration, you'll learn to:

• Evaluate new social technologies as they emerge
• Determine how different groups of consumers are participating in social technology arenas
• Apply a four-step process for formulating your future strategy
• Build social technologies into your business

Groundswell is required listening for executives seeking to protect and strengthen their company's public image.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"..for Groundswell's intended audience - managers struggling to answer questions such as 'should my soap company have a presence on Facebook?' or 'why isn't anyone reading our company blog?' - the emphasis on data and analytics is not a bug - it's a feature" ( The Financial Times)

I can't

so....just know that the author is narrating and he is TERRIBLE and has a lisp..IM SORRY, BUT it's very distracting, and it would be ok if the rest of the reading was good, but he reads like he just learned to read today. I have to constantly rewind because I zone out or I wonder why someone with a lisp would narrate an audio book...I just can't. I'll finish it somehow, the content is great. But be warned, the audio book sucks. If you can, just read the book.

Great book with loads of great advice

I have listened to this book several times. Even better than other books on this topic it helps you change the way you look at your web business and plan for the future. The world is changing, this book helps point you in the right direction.

Excellent Read

As a student working on my Masters in Social Media Marketing this book showed me how important the Groundswell is important for all types of business aspects from the small home business to corporate. This is a fantastic read!
