DESCRIPTION
This is a set of slides for students of an Advanced Social Media Marketing course I taught at UCSC Silicon Valley. The slides contain content not covered in class as too basic for an advanced class (but requested by some students as refresher or to fill gaps). They are intended for self-study. The deck provides basic guidance on how to use Twitter, LinkedIn and other social channels, what marketing options exist and how B2C and B2B social differ.
