Christine Whittemore's new e–book, Social Media's Collective Wisdom: Simplifying Marketing With Social Media, is now
available for free on her Simple Marketing Now website. This new book questions 26 social media practitioners on
suggestions for companies to implement new social media into their traditional old media strategies. The new book is the
first volume of Social Media's Collective Wisdom series to help organizations jump start the process of effectively starting
social media campaigns.
Kinnelon, NJ, September 3, 2009 –– Christine Whittemore, chief simplifier of Simple Marketing Now LLC, has
published "Social Media's Collective Wisdom: Simplifying Marketing With Social Media" in which 26 prominent social media
practitioners answer the question "what suggestions do you have for companies to implement so they can more effectively
bridge old media with new media and connect with end users?"
The wisdom collected in this e–book originates from a social media interview series about Bridging New & Old that
Whittemore launched in December 2008 on her blog Flooring The Consumer. This first volume of "Social Media's Collective
Wisdom" captures responses from the first 26 participants in this ongoing series.
"Social media is here to stay," says Whittemore, "but the tools and approaches aren't yet fully understood particularly as
it relates to organizations. How better to jump start the process by absorbing the collective wisdom of these insightful
social media professionals."
