Social Media Marketing by Zizheng Yu and Hyunsun Yoon provides undergraduate students with a comprehensive introduction to the theory and practice of social media in contemporary marketing. Ideal for modules in digital and social media marketing, it equips learners with the analytical, strategic and creative skills needed to understand and manage social media platforms as dynamic tools of communication, influence and engagement.

Bridging academic theory with real-world practice, this textbook explores how social media transforms consumer behaviour, brand relationships and brand crises. It examines promotional culture, online communities and the rise of consumer activism, offering students a critical perspective on both the opportunities and risks of social media engagement.

International real-world examples include Fabindia, Unilever, Gymshark and Gentle Monster show how different platforms are used across global markets, while new material on crisis management, consumer resistance and anti-branding reflects today's complex and fast-moving digital environment.

Reviews for Social Media Marketing: Digital Marketing in a Networked World

""Yu and Yoon have successfully produced a critical and applied intervention in the intersection of social media and marketing studies. Social Media Marketing offers a fresh outlook on strategic communication on social media coupled with real world examples and digestible formats for knowledge sharing. This book promises to be a valuable asset to students in marketing and communications."" * Professor Eleftheria Lekakis, Associate Professor in Media and Communication (Media and Film), University of Sussex * ""This book is a timely and much-needed contribution to the field of social media marketing. While many of us assume we 'understand' social media, this text skilfully demonstrates how essential it is to engage with the deeper theoretical foundations that shape digital interactions. Yu and Yoon offer a rich, critical exploration of social media's evolving landscape, paired with practical insights that make the content both intellectually stimulating and highly applicable. Importantly, the book moves beyond Western-centric narratives, presenting a genuinely global perspective that reflects the realities of today's connected world. This will be an invaluable addition to our understanding and teaching of social media marketing, and a refreshing resource for students, educators, and practitioners alike."" * Emmanuel Mogaji, PhD, Associate Professor in Marketing, Keele University *
