(For the rest of you, here’s the link if you want a refresher). Today, I’m changing my tweeting tune [...]

Do you really “Like” me?—Facebook “Like” me that is

written by Adam Cupples (@ACupples) Everyday I see my Facebook friends “liking” everything from TV shows to Spamburgers, or becoming “fans” of the Black Eyed Peas,”finding $20 on the ground”, or “doing the Single Ladies dance when no one’s looking”…okay, not sure if that last one is really a group, but I’m sure it is… [...]

Social Networking Maximization—Part Deux

written by Adam Cupples (@ACupples) Last week I wrote a post on Social Networking Maximization and asked my dedicated and fiercely intelligent readers to share any experiences with me on how these “virtual tools” have helped with relationship building. One of my most loyal readers (besides my Mom… Hi Mom!) Brenna brought up an excellent point.  Many companies fall into this trap. Brenna commented: [...]
