This book was released on 2012-04-03 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Complete Idiot's Guide® to Social Media Marketing, Second Edition, covers cutting-edge techniques for small and large businesses alike. Ask the Author Q: How has social media marketing changed business and personal lives? A: The playing field has been leveled for business. No longer do you need a 6 or 7 figure budget to reach people around the country or globe for that matter. Personally, many lives have been affected. Many people more connected, businesses have grown because of the connections, TV and singing careers have been launched, money has been raised for charity, books have been marketed and purchased, and so on. Q: What has been the most challenging part of utilizing social media? A: I think the learning curve. With all of these sites . . . they come with no directions and no LIVE phone number. Q: What has worked the best and worst thus far? A: Facebook because of it’s broad reach really has worked for me, but many would argue that YouTube works the best; particularly since it is the search engine of choice with the 11–34 age group. Q: How can a person searching for a job use social media marketing? A: So many ways. . . . They need to be on LinkedIn with a professional looking profile, photo, and contact information. They could also utilize video to begin sharing their expertise. Candidates need to stand out in a crowd of millions so if they say . . . sent in a video introducing themselves and a video follow up email . . . that would wow them! Q: What is the newest thing since Twitter? A: I believe companies and individuals are starting to utilize audio for creating their own iTunes channel, and also location-based social media like FourSquare. I personally, am not sold on location based services as of yet from a safety point of view, but for retailers it can be a good thing. I believe video is going to explode in popularity in 2011 for the 35+ market as well. They just need to get comfortable being on camera!

If you're looking for an uber-effective way to master the art of driving traffic to your offers through paid advertising, get this book - it truly is the ultimate guide!” —Mari Smith, co-author of Facebook Marketing: An Hour A Day and author of The New Relationship Marketing ”If anybody can make practical sense of Facebook for marketers, it’s Perry. He has his finger on its truth - as advertising media not social media. This book shows how to capitalize on ideal timing with this media. He is a well-disciplined direct-response practitioner who holds this accountable for ROI. I bestow my ‘No B.S. blessing.’” —Dan S. Kennedy, legendary direct marketing advisor and author of the No B.S. book series, www.NoBSBooks.com ”Ultimate Guide to Facebook Advertising just might be your ultimate guide to earning a ton of money with this social media phenomenon. What you don't know about Facebook could hurt you and what you will learn about Facebook from this book definitely will help you. It's a fun and easy read and a surefire way to seriously increase your income.” -Jay Conrad Levinson, The Father of Guerrilla Marketing, author of the Guerrilla Marketing series of books ”Facebook advertising appears simple, but it's trickier than search engine marketing. In this book, Perry Marshall and Tom Meloche teach you secret of "Right Angle Marketing" - selling based on who people are and what they identify with. This is entirely different from Yahoo! or Google. They help you determine how to prioritize Facebook within your particular marketing mix. Then they take you by the hand and lead you through the minefield, showing you the tools, bidding techniques, and sales cycles of Facebook ads. Without their help, the odds are stacked against you. With their help, your chances of success are excellent.” -Alex Mandossian, Heritage House Publishing, author of The Business Podcasting Bible ”Perry Marshall has done more to de-mystify Google AdWords for business owners than any person on earth. With this book, he's done the same for Facebook. If you want to cut through the smoke quickly and make money advertising on Facebook, this is the book to read.” - Ken McCarthy. The System Seminar, Tivoli NY ”The irony of living in the Information Age is that good info has gotten harder to come by. The lame stuff still manages to clog the pipes, causing chaos and preventing you from discovering the legit specifics that can actually help you in your quest for business success and a bigger bottom line. Perry Marshall has been a first- stop, one-stop resource for the best possible advice on making AdWords work since Google unleashed it on the marketing community…and now, Perry’s new tome on Facebook’s astonishing (and yet-to-be-fully-tapped) power to reach gazillions of targeted, eager prospects (most of whom you’d never even know existed, otherwise) is the first and probably the only book you need to be one of those early adopters who score fastest. Perry’s books are always essential. This one is perhaps more so than usual.” -John Carlton, the most respected and ripped-off veteran copywriter on the Web ”Perry Marshall is amazing! He reinvented himself from engineer to white paper expert to become the world's leading expert in Google Adwords. Now with his secret weapon, Tom Meloche, he's reinvented himself again, this time as the guru in Facebook advertising ... through which, he points out, you can access 600 million customers in 10 minutes.” -Bob Bly, author of over 60 books including Complete Idiot’s Guide to Direct Marketing, The Online Copywriter’s Handbook and Public Relations Kit for Dummies ”Perry Marshall is a terrific writer who makes wonderful use of stories and analogies to illustrate a concept. He does this exceptionally well in the chapter on ad copy writing, ‘The Power of Hidden Psychological Triggers.’ That chapter alone is worth the price of this book. "Many companies have tried Facebook ads and failed for one simple reason: they treated Facebook advertising like search advertising. “Facebook is social advertising. Social advertising is about understanding and reaching the user. Not the user's behavior; but the actual person. This is where the book shines. It walks you through strategies of reaching your target audience based upon the person's social profile so that you aren't just accumulating 'Likes,’ but actually gaining new customers. “I'd recommend this book to anyone who is advertising, or wants to advertise, on Facebook. Social advertising is unique from most other types of advertising, and this book will teach you the concepts and how-tos you must understand so that your Facebook ads increase your overall profits.” -Brad Geddes, author of Advanced Google AdWords ”One of the things I love about Perry is that he always shoot from the hip. Ultimate Guide to Facebook Advertising is written with no holds barred, which means that all the ‘juicy’ tips that might get left out of other, similar books are all in this book. It's more than just a tactical ‘how to.’ It goes into the psychological aspects of ad writing specifically suited for Facebook and gives all kinds of practical advice for fan pages. So for anyone who really wants to get serious about Facebook advertising, this book is definitely a must read.” -Shelley Ellis, contextual advertising expert, www.ContentNetworkInsider.com ”Perry Marshall led the pack with Google AdWords back in 2006. He's still leading the pack today with Ultimate Guide to Facebook Advertising. Perry and Tom Meloche combine ‘insider’ knowledge of marketing on Facebook with proven marketing fundamentals for a powerful one-two punch that delivers results. Perry doesn't just theorize about how Facebook marketing works, he does it himself, and he's worked with thousands of others to hone his knowledge of this emerging landscape. If you're thinking of marketing on Facebook, or if you're already doing it, you'd be crazy to not get Ultimate Guide to Facebook Advertising. -Clate Mask, president, InfusionSoft ”Hands down, I have never seen a more comprehensive in-depth study of successful Facebook advertising than what you are holding in your hands. Perry has done it again, he’s extracted the 'gold' within this amazing system of advertising that every astute marketer should devour and implement.” - Ari Galper, founder and CEO, Unlock The Game, www.UnlockTheGame.com "Hundreds of my clients have failed at Facebook before. Many were so seriously slaughtered that I'd written it off as a traffic source for all but the most advanced marketer, so recommending this book is not something I do lightly—yet I DO suggest you order a rush copy. Simply put, it's a game changer. If you've tried Facebook before and failed, I'll bet you didn't have the testing paradigm, targeting insights, bidding strategies, tools, and creative advertising resources outlined in the easy-to-digest, entertaining words here. This goes double for experienced PPC marketers and triple for anyone who's read another Facebook advertising book. Seriously, if this isn't worth a trip to Amazon.com, I don't know what is!" —Glenn Livingston, Ph.D., Marketing Psychologist, market research expert and founder of RocketClicks.com
