I’ve been in marketing or advertising (online or otherwise) for 20 years. I’ve been thinking lately about why I got involved in social media. Testimonials are a huge part of the infomercial world, as they are for effective social media. You’re thinking that I’m crazy. But, I’m not.

Social media is fueled by passion, and too many companies try to take elements of their company that aren’t passion-worthy, and attempt to build a social media program around it.
