Social Media Marketing Essentials You Always Wanted To Know

Social Media Marketing Essentials is a must read for anyone wanting to learn about the world of social media either for understanding organic or paid marketing. The 'eyeballs' that are spent on social media only continue to increase making it a key part of any marketing strategy these days. I enjoyed finding the history of these social media companies and the summary of their ad formats, and media measurement metrics in one place! The book provides a good first-principles-based understanding of the key social media platforms - this is really helpful since the social media landscape changes at a really fast pace but once you understand the basics well, it becomes much easier to navigate through the changes whether it's a new content engagement format on an existing network like Instagram or a net new social media network that gains popularity in the next 5 years. Highly recommend this book. --Mr. Venkatraman Prabhu Director, Product Management, Amazon, USA. This book written by Dr. Kavita Kamath Dhumal really captured the purpose of social media marketing in detail and has been written in a simplistic way to teach each and every aspect of marketing-basics to advanced strategies. As a finance person I never knew the intricacies of marketing campaigns and their evaluations but now I understand how every penny spent on various marketing vehicles may translate into revenue. --Mr. Gannesh Rao, Vice President, Sony Pictures Networks India
