About the author

Owner of Welborn Media, the Defining Success Podcast, 19th Hole Media and The Tutoring Solution.

Life Goal: To be successful doing something I love while helping other people. Fortunately for me, that happens every day. I help business owners become successful via internet marketing.

To reach my goals I started:

- the Defining Success Podcast to interview successful people
- Welborn Media to help businesses market themselves
- 19th Hole Media to help grow golf
- The Tutoring Solution to help students reach their potential and pursue their passions.

The Defining Success Podcast is designed to change the way we think of success. We interview "successful" people, people who love what they do, are good at it and are willing to help others.

Welborn Media began in June 2011. We manage Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube, Pinterest, Instagram, email marketing campaigns, graphic design work, blogs, and design and manage websites for our clients. Our motto - Share Your Passion. Grow Your Business.

19th Hole Media is helping to grow golf using the Internet to create golfing communities around local golf courses. My new book, The Social Golf Course, shares how golf courses can use social media to increase rounds at their course.

Education is my first love and I am proud of the impact The Tutoring Solution has had in the lives of students across Southern California. The Tutoring Solution has helped hundreds of students and the winners of our Share Your Passion Scholarship have helped passionate students prepare for college.

Read this book in one sitting. This is a great book about how to manage a social media campaign for businesses or even your personal brand. I organize golf tournament for a living and plan to information from this book to put together a social media plan for my tournament. Good job Zeb and John by putting together a book that explains all you need to know about social media. I will let you know how my golf tournament works out.
