I had seen Pam's story on Marketing Sherpa and thought she would be a great person for them to meet and having been following Pam on twitter, I tweeted her up and made the connect. She touched on many topics that companies of all sizes should be considering. You and I were on a con call the other day and the topic of Facebook came up.
