The Funnel is Still a Valid Model
[tweetmeme source=”Marcio_saito” only_single=false] Shall we put “Social” in front of it? In my quest for a term that had not yet been attached to “Social”, I discovered that Google could find only 7 instances of “Social Marketing Funnel”.

Mom Doesn’t use Twitter
How are Marketers going to deal with the new social divide? [tweetmeme source=”Marcio_saito” only_single=false] There were several “Happy Mother’s Day” notes on my timeline yesterday, but it is very unlikely that the mothers of today’s grown-ups were actually listening that channel.
