Following the fab feedback from fellow tweeters and blog followers from my last post I wanted to share some further listening and posting devices from top Vistage speaker Grant Leboff.

As the social media bandwagon gains momentum, it is powerful to see the bottom line benefits that businesses are enjoying through either managing their own blogs or commissioning PR agencies to manage them on their behalf.

And remember that when using Twitter, Linkedin don’t forget the importance of video to boost your ranking.
