Massive social media programs from brands like Coca-Cola and Doritos can mask the fact that SM marketing is about one-to-one connections between buyers and sellers, according to TechTarget founding editor and author Paul Gillin, who spoke to PRSA's Cleveland Chapter.
Gillin, former editor-in-chief of Computerworld, said B2B companies have more upside to get out of making those one-to-one connections than B2C companies, but B2Bs don't get the publicity because they don't have the massive scale.
