The Unkown Unknowns of Social Media

    He said, 'What you do is in the real world.  Social Media isn't at all that. It doesn't work.'   I can't convince him to share posts, retweet, and so on - even though we have a joint product on sale: the audiobook of My Tutu Went AWOL .    I've told him today that we co-own the dog in this fight, thanks.    And I asked how he can possibly know if Social Media is working or not.  'A tweet about My Tutu Went AWOL is like a poster blue-tacked up in the ether.'   'Okay,' he said. 'Good analogy.  But still...'   He'd already fallen into my trap. I said, 'So, following my good analogy let's take the twenty-two posters that I used to put up for my early shows in Aldeburgh. I wasn't able to sit with even one of those twenty-two posters in view day and night for as long as it was on display, making a note of how many people looked at it. Get it?  So, retweet, already.'   #socialmedia #socialmedia...
