BeanCast 163: Trending Trouble
LISTEN TO THE SHOW NOW OR SUBSCRIBE FOR AUTODOWNLOADING
Powerful!
The show this week is definitely thought-provoking. But more than that, each of the guests this week are true conversationalists. And that's why I describe the program as, "powerful."
Of course Duane was on too. So the word, "Silly" comes to mind. "Silly powerful," maybe? Or perhaps, "Powerfully silly?"
Okay, that's not describing the show at all! And I'm realizing that I should never write these things before my first cup of coffee. So let's just go back to, "powerful," drink a cup of Joe and impress the hell out of you with this fantastic BeanCast. I really think you'll like it.
Hope you enjoy the program. And please remember, I'd love some more Twitter followers to continue the conversation there. Just follow @TheBeanCast.

I am always amazed at how many marketers don't do their own research. On privacy obviously Rupal and Cindy haven't studied Facebook like I have. I run a Brand page based in SoCal. I am always clicking on the pages of the fans who comment. And at least 70% of the pages are 100% private. These are your average consumer. A year ago I did this for all the Social Media folks I had connected with and over half also had their pages 100% locked down. So people 'think' what they are posting is private. Marketers can use this thing saying 'no its all public' because that benefits marketers. But people think if they lock their profile down it is all private. And the fact such a high percent have done this says privacy is a huge concern.
So I am curious how many marketers have actually done the studies I have done. They are real world. I go to brand pages often to see how many Likes and Comments they get on posts. I crunch the numbers on the Facebook visits per month total, unique visitors, activity levels. And no one seems to do this and I can only come down to crowd fraud. If I run social media for a big company would I ever admit it doesn't work? Would Mashable? Would the networks? No there is money at stake. Jobs at stake.
been awhile since I commented here Bob feels good LOL
