We are introducing our October Book of the Month, Maximizing LinkedIn for Sales and Social Media Marketing by Neal Schaffer. Past titles we’ve featured have been more content development, social media best practices so we’re especially excited to have a title that offers a deeper dive on a specific platform.
Neal is an author, speaker and social media strategy consultant, who has appeared in the Wall Street Journal, Bloomberg Business Week,
Yahoo!, and the American Express Open Forum. A graduate of Amherst College, he is also fluent in Chinese and Japanese and currently resides in Irvine, California, where he proudly serves on the marketing committee for the United Way of Orange County. To learn more about Neal, visit his website.
Some of our SMC Professional members and chapter leaders reviewed the title on behalf of Social Media Book Club. Check out what other social media professionals like Mark Krupinski of SMC Orlando, Craig Yaris of SMC Long Island, Caitlin Muir of SMC San Antonio and Dave Wade of SMC Weber/Davis, had to say about Maximizing LinkedIn for Sales and Social Media Marketing. SMC Amsterdam Founder & Leader, Erno Hannink also did this great video review.
