build your social capital

marketing & social media deal in the same currency

social capital = reputation = access to resources / access

public accomplishments = increased levels of trust =
reputation = more social capital: wash, rinse, repeat

know what you’re measuring

Reach – how far does it travel?

Relevance – does it support your intended direction?
Influence – who shares and passes along with whom?
Authority – how trusted is the source?
Engagement – how involved do they get?
