It's hard to define a Social Media guru in a business that's changing so rapidly! There's more to Social Media now than getting on LinkedIn and sending a few Tweets. Klout, PeerIndex and Empire Avenue give an idea of engagement but now there's a better way!

Really a must-read post. And when is the Peter Masters action figure going to be available? :)

Thank you very much!

I wish, the good thing about the Seth action figure is head didn't have any hair issues!

I was very pleased too that upon my suggestion Ed Orcutt applied the same technology to Empire Avenue. The guy's amazing, he made the app work on Empire Avenue between Tweets. It took him about 2 minutes! Hence my very excited post the next day!

Some days you've just got to be amazed at Social Media!

Thanks for the comment!! Have a great weekend!

Best regards, Peter

Thanks for your comment Adam and yes I think this at least offers people a chance to check!

A lot of people. myself included, have been into marketing for years, I also helped with the design (aesthetics NOT the technical bits) on websites in the Dot Com era and I've designed web content and written copy and my development into social Media seemed a natural progression. I don't see anyone as an all knowing guru, there's just too much to know!!

We all have our strengths and if we combine those strengths with other people we make some great teams, that's what I'm working on right now!!

To me the beauty of Blogs and Blogging is that people can do a lot of it themselves!!

Best regards, Peter

Some good tools here! I think a lot of people don't bother to look too deeply into the backgrounds of their marketing/social media consultants, and they get burnt as a result. These services will at least help to weed out the real experts from the cons.
