[font=arial, helvetica, hirakakupro-w3, osaka, "ms pgothic", sans-serif]Word of mouth marketing has its association. Search engine marketers have their association, . Direct marketers have and so on. Now that social media marketing has come into its own, should there be an telemarketing data industry association to represent it? I think so.
Call it SOMMA (Social Media Marketing Association) or COMMA (Conversational Media Marketing Association...which, of course, would be my preference), I believe for the sake of industry growth and maturity, some form of association is called for.[/font]

[font=arial, helvetica, hirakakupro-w3, osaka, "ms pgothic", sans-serif]To be created to represent the industry as well, whether its tied to an association or not. I'm very impressed with , which, btw, focused on social media marketing in its Spring 08 issue. (There is a magazine, which speaks to the industry, but is more general in scope. Who has the moxie to pull this off? My guess is the and Co. After all, they already do an conference. [/font]

[font=arial, helvetica, hirakakupro-w3, osaka, "ms pgothic", sans-serif]Google Juice-producing shill for SEOs, are any indication, there is still a need for clarification, education and the establishment of industry standards and best practices. Am I wrong?
I know bloggers have traditionally shyed away from the notion of "standards and best practices," though I think the medium has become mainstream enough so that it's no longer like the "wild west" good old days. However, I don't feel the same stigma is attached to social media marketing and there would be a greater degree of solidarity around the idea of establishing an association.[/font]

I'm sure I'm not the only who's thought[/font]
[font=arial, helvetica, hirakakupro-w3, osaka, "ms pgothic", sans-serif]this, though when I googled the phrase "" nothing concrete came up. (Same with same with Technorati...OK, so maybe I am the only one talking about it at the moment.)
I've always been one who felt the whole was greater than the sum of its parts. There are a number of social media marketing conferences and events going on and many SMM "kingdoms" being established. Social media is the "talk of the town" where marketing is concerned, yet there is no single agency representing the industry... at least none that I know of... and I believe it's time some type of association be created.

[font=Georgia, "Times New Roman", Times, serif]I believe that the best free methods are:[/font]
[font=Georgia, "Times New Roman", Times, serif]Why I bought LikeSpinner[/font]
[font=Georgia, "Times New Roman", Times, serif]I have bought a script called (aff. link), and I have tested it, just a little, but enough to share my thoughts.[/font]
[font=Georgia, "Times New Roman", Times, serif]I bought it on impulse. The sales page, and the video convinced me that I should test the script (I have to admit that it looks great). This happens to me a lot, the sales pages are stunning with awesome testimonials from well-known marketers, and it gets me every single time. That’s exactly what happened this time.[/font]
[font=Georgia, "Times New Roman", Times, serif]LikeSpinner was fairly cheap, I paid $29, and it was 60 day money back guarantee. I didn’t have anything to lose.[/font]
[font=Georgia, "Times New Roman", Times, serif]The reason I bought it and wanted to test it, was because I wanted to see the viral effects of this script, and if it’s possible to get lots of new people to like my Facebook Fan Page from just installing a script.[/font]
[font=Georgia, "Times New Roman", Times, serif]It’s usually not that easy, but I thought that this time it might be just that easy (I always seem to think that when I see a new product).[/font]
[font=Georgia, "Times New Roman", Times, serif]What is LikeSpinner?[/font]
[font=Georgia, "Times New Roman", Times, serif]Let me tell you what it is by showing you images and examples of how I use it.[/font]
[font=Georgia, "Times New Roman", Times, serif]First of all, LikSpinner creates a landing page for you on your Facebook Page. When people visit, that’s what they’ll see.[/font]
[font=Georgia, "Times New Roman", Times, serif]Here’s an image of mine (this is straight out of the box).[/font]
[font=Georgia, "Times New Roman", Times, serif]LikeSpinner comes with all the graphics you need, and you get the psd-files, so you can edit and add your own text.[/font]
[font=Georgia, "Times New Roman", Times, serif]Look, it’s all about the incentive.[/font]
