| |
| Lois Kelly is the author of Beyond Buzz: The Next Generation of Word-of-Mouth Marketing. This is her explanation of the top nine types of stories that people like to talk about. If you’re pitching your company to investors, customers, partners, journalists, vendors, or employees and you don’t use at least one of these story lines, you probably have a problem.

We need to start doing what successful businesses are doing, so I thought to myself, what is Agora doing that we aren't? |

Social Media and PR Firms: The Cost of Expertise
| |
| Developing a strategic social media program that will build a business involves costs and expertise. Social media is typically deemed as “earned” media, but that’s a long-term goal.
