Editor's Notes
- I often get asked 'What is social media?' and in a sense I hate to define it...I believe once you define it then you restrict it.Of course you can define the theory or what is happening to create the social media world....but why not stop there.Think about art - in its general sense. There are musicians, artists etc .... there is no art there is their definition of what art is?If you define too closely and say thats not social media...or indeed thats not art...then you are doing the opposite to social media!Social media is about self expressions, collaboration, human to human....whatever phrase you want to say...and as long as it is expressing your personality, your way of defining that...then thats fab!Social media is a concept to me....not a thing, not one technique which should be the same to everybody.Am I wrong...what do you think?

- -- What is the outcome you’re looking at? -- Are you looking at increased conversions? Are you looking at social media as a brand communication channel?-- Are you looking at SM for leads generation?
- If you want to sell a product such as a book across social media, you must focus on your audience’s pain point, solve their problems, and add value to them little by little.Provide free advice that’s of high value, NOT something anyone can just copy and paste from a source like a blog.For example, instead of relaying mainstream news, focus on syndicating news gear towards a specific niche area so you become the go-to source for it.Better yet, compile the content and provide your own insight so you act as a filter for your audience.

- In order to build an effective social media campaign in a foreign country it is advisable, not only to use the international top players, but also the local platforms, which are the ones that can help you to know better the peculiarities of that region. After all, there isn’t only Facebook out there.Choosing the appropriate, local social network is only the first step. The next one involves a serious market research in order to perform an effective localization of your social media campaign in the Asian market. The main reason to embark on market research (which is not always easy and quick), is to know who your competitors are. You might find out that the Asian country you have decided to target has many more, well established local competitors than you could have expected: so why not switch to another market?The other, very important consideration that has to be made before launching a social media campaign in a foreign country (especially where the culture is significantly different) is that what works in one country will not necessarily work in another. Different languages mean different cultures and any good localized social media campaign has to be adapted to the culture of the country and not the other way around.
