I recently read Jeffrey Gitomer's Social Boom! This wasn't a book that belong to my to read list, but I still read it because we had some LinkedIn related ideas flying around the office. I wanted to check if there would be some good tips about business social media for us.

Contents of the book as such are quite good. It goes trough the most important social media's from business point of view and tells how one could create sales leads with social media. Book didn't offer much new for myself, but...more

The beauty of Jeffrey’s books can also be his Achilles heel. So which one am I more inclined towards? The beauty and not the beast.

Let me explain.

Here is another small little book, condensed with to-the-point nuggets of what it takes to be the someone or something in the social world. In fact, I consider this more as a workbook and guide and less as a read-through-and-enjoy kind of book.

Unlike his other books, this book is not written entirely by Jeffrey. And it is not like one seamless chapter...more

Jeffery Gitomer’s “Social BOOM!: How to Master Business Social Media to Brand Yourself, Sell Yourself, Sell Your Product, Dominate Your Industry Market, Save Your Butt, … and Grind Your Competition into the Dirt” seems to be the best of these titles, mostly due to Gitomer’s in-your-face writing style and attitude. (Doesn’t the title say it all?)

Gitomer, the man behind the Sales Caffeine salesmanship program is a motivational speaker, lecturer, consultant and prolific author in the field of sales...more

В"Социалният БУМ!" Джефри Гитомър обяснява какво са социалните медии, как могат да бъдат превърнати в бизнессоциални медии. Като един истински гуру в областта на продаването (или поне представящ себе си по този начин), той е осъзнал достатъчно рано колко важно е да си "социален", ако искаш да продаваш, и се е гмурнал в морето на социалните медии - така че има и съвети за споделяне. И честно казано - нелоши. Съсредоточил се е върху Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn и YouTube и д

Excellent new book from my friend and mentor, Jeffrey Gitomer. One of the first books specifically applying best social media practices to business and sales. A quick read with great advice from Jeffrey and other social media movers and shakers. Each chapter is filled with easy concepts on which to take action and apply to your own social media marketing efforts two seconds after you read them.

This book was a lot different read than previous books from Jeffery Gitomer. This book is a compilation of information from numerous others, as well as from himself. While the information overall was good, it made reading the book seem somewhat odd because the normal "Gitomer" flow or continuity wasn't there. Additionally, the information being given (from one presenter to another)was very similar or somewhat redundant ... not badly, but just enough to make you have a moment of deja vue.

While I...more

This is an awesome book. The author is clear, direct, and on every single page there is actionable content. I really liked the detailed breakdown of the benefits and usage of LinkedIn and Twitter. Anyone could read this book and start taking action with Social Media.

A quick read - good advice in social media marketing - but be careful not to take everything as gospel. Everyday the world of social media and marketing evolves and even a good book with great advice can be dated instantly...!
Joe Faust
Good News: Some excellent points about and ideas for using Social Media: Bad News: He only wrote about half the book (lots of guest writers), and it turns into an ad for his products and services at the end.
Stephenethridge
Read a year or so ago. It was a good read but most of it is common practice today. If you haven't already read it I wouldn't take the time.
Gene Allen
This was the catalyst for my jumping into social media. It is a practical guide for anyone interested in learning about social media.
Lori Grant
A should-read book on social media for the knowledge worker, manager, executive, or entrepreneur.
Michael
Self-promotional, self-indulgent. Hard to read with all the various fonts and constant name dropping and having a speech disguised as a what-to-do on business social media and LARGE CAPATALISATIONS makes for a very tiring self-rave and pat on the back.
Scott
Another GREAT book from Jeffrey! A real "primer" on hwo to utilize Social Media to the fullest!
Flavil Hampsten
If you're not in the social media world or want to get better at it. This is the book for you.
Hashim Al-Zain
A must read for anybody that want to kick-start their business or for those who are just starting!
Damla Kaan
It is a magnificant book.
Marc Bowers
This book was short and to the point. Jeffrey Gitomer continues to put out great reads that can help you and your company.

Any company that currently has a social media presence or is looking to create one, then you must read this book. If you don't read this book, then your social media presence is not or can't be amazing. Jeffrey offers great value and business advice on how to make social media work for you and your company.
Rachel Carrington
If you're looking for a way to use social media to your advantage, then read this book. If you want to know the wrong way to use social media, read this book. Jeffrey Gitomer pulls no punches, but he does so in a way that makes you smack yourself in the head and say "why didn't I think of that?". A lot of great information is packed into 192 pages, and it's worth a second and even third read.
Jessica
This book could've been written in one sentence. The format is repetitive to the point of being ridiculous.
