<\/a>Note:<\/strong>\u00a0Despite our jokes, no one paid anyone to talk on this podcast.<\/p>\n
Here are some great quotes from our time together:<\/p>\n
“If [social media] is a landscape like my front yard, it looks like a bunch of crap.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
“Social media is an untended garden, people planted stuff into it and have no idea why they did it.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
“Social media is this place where everyone is doing a whole bunch of stuff and we don’t know why<\/strong>.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
“You have to have a peer group to build a business. That’s what I went looking for [on social media].”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
“Putting social media under marketing only is like putting the telephone under marketing only – it’s a tool: the consumer decides what they want to do with it<\/strong>, not the brand.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Our time with Scott was spent expanding upon ideas John, Amy and I all believe in. If you also enjoy Scott’s style, we recommend listening into his UnPodcast<\/a>. As always, thanks for listening!<\/p>\n
