i like how you mention, "regardless of their industry" b/c that's so true. there are many companies that overlook the importance of social media b/c they focus only on twitter and facebook, when in reality, there are thousands of niche communities that are extremely important for different verticals.

Thanks Ryan. It's inspiring always to see great products/services thrive. When a company ventures into social it's amazing to see how word can spread like wildfire. Truly remarkable.

Very interesting use of advertising in social media. the less obtrusive, the better and it looks like they executed this one really well. How about Toyota that had an entire subdomain on Digg.com (or so it seemed) to help with the damage control there? Thanks for sharing Brent, always insightful!

10e20 : 3 Examples of Real World Social Media Conversion (and ROI)

Adam, no question that publishers have a content advantage. Your exactly right on that. We too see publishers though who *struggle* in social areas b/c they don't have the knowledge and expertise with regard to site layout, usability (and more) to be successful in social channels. So, even they need a fair amount of follow up/education to understand processes, layout and approach. Then, they need to know which niche sites and major sites to go after and which ones not to go after. With regard to the non-publisher set such as brands, b2b, consumer products and ecommerce, they need to start thinking about being better content producers. Fortunately or unfortunately it can be the name of the game and the differentiator. And, most companies, when they really bare down and think about content, the find the possibilities are endless. I recently posted on that issue of getting that content out there in more effective ways. http://www.10e20.com/blog/2010/01/20/bridging-the... ...with a graphic to go along with it: http://bit.ly/aD2w43 Thanks for visiting and hope to speak with you soon!

Marshall, VERY insightful feedback. Yes, the email feature of group discussion is exactly how this can benefit B2B scouting for relationships and solid connections / business deals. It's there, you just need to be a part of the community. Thanks for sharing b/c that's exactly how I found that posting. Following you now on twitter too!

quite the contrary. in most every situation social media causes a multiplier or "halo" effect where we see increased benefits to businesses from active social campaigns launched along side other marketing initiatives. - thanks for visiting!

Lorien, That's a very astute point you make: establishing roots in twitter during pre-launch is a great tactic. I've seen this first hand as well. Thanks for stopping by 10e20 blog. Cool site/service you have there!

Jason, On the DM box being a column of classifieds: it really becomes a joke how companies and "marketers" think that they can actually make pitches work on auto-reply. You have to assume they are just playing a numbers game, which at the end of the day (long-term) may not be the best approach to social media. Short term wins are perhaps okay for some, but it's being effective in the big picture and the long term that counts as well.

Thanks Bill for stopping by and reading through. It seems that this is overlooked time and again by business owners. You can definitely garner some real quality linking (or "merit based" as you mention) by working hard in the relationship channel.

Oscar, thanks for stopping by and taking time to comment on my post. With Insight, YouTube seems to be scratching the surface of video analytics, so it's good to spend some time getting to know it as it develops. Your videos are really great. They capture a lifestyle and that seems to be the perfect pitch fur your biz and work. Fantastic! I like this one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GhVS397Z4r8 Feel free to reach out to me through our contact page if you need further feedback. While I'm not a video director I always love chat about how best to leverage it online. Thanks for the invite to Rome, I'd love to stop by!
