Stop This…
We need 10,000 Facebook Likes and then we’ll start doing stuff.
Why don’t we just buy social shares? They’re just like links right?
+1s are more important than Facebook shares and Tweets.

Finding Influencers
“If John is followed by 50,000 people who have no followers of their own, he is in a world of hurt compared with Jane, who is followed by 10,000 people who are each followed by 1,000 others. The guarantee of creating an opportunity to see for 50,000 pales next to the opportunity to see for 10 million. Even if you assume that only a fraction of them retweet – say 10 percent – you’ve still reached 1.1 million.”Jim Sterne, Social Media Metrics: How to Measure and Optimize Your Marketing Investment.
