If there’s such a thing as a ‘social media expert,’ Brian Solis might just be it.
If you follow him, as I do, he seems to be everywhere all at once. From being a social himself, to putting himself behind social technology, he’s the perfect person to lend perspective on how public relations and social media are meshing – or not.
This A-List podcast we dedicate to discussing, his new book, “Putting the Public Back in Public Relations: How Social Media Is Reinventing the Aging Business of PR.”
