It's been wonderful to work with Mark. He has been an integral part of the success of several conferences, focusing on Social Media for Government, as well as Social Media for the private sector.

He brings to light the importance of getting your name and mission into the social spaces and how to do that effectively. This is such a critical lesson for everyone to learn and it's no wonder that we have him come back to share his expertise time and time again.

Mark:

You have made a significant difference at Point to Point. Your hard work with our agency has helped our people better understand the power and capabilities of social marketing. Best of all, you have taken away the fear and cynicism that were associated with the Twitter, Facebook, Myspace and the dozens of other social sites that we read about each day.

A new day is here in advertising and marketing and your vision has helped us grasp and embrace the many opportunities that exist to build more meaningful connections.

And by the way you name isnâ??t so bad either.

Mark,

As you know, I have often struggled with exactly what you were trying to say, and more importantly to try and explain your efforts. As a non facebook, no twitter, non blogging, "old guy" at (still) under 40, at times it seemed you were speaking a foreign language! But I now get it, based on the planting seeds analogy and, in fact, used just that metaphor in a planning meeting at the telecom company I work for yesterday. You would have been so proud! I think they even bought into the argument that this is a space that is relatively inexpensive and effective in reaching out to our consumers, if done correctly.

Thanks for teaching little brother! Who would have thought there was something I could learn from you!

I like your thinking and the way you frame the power of interactive mediums. And with a name like Mark Goren, it has to be good.

My colleagues and I at IATA want to thank Mark Goren for presenting his Planting Seeds concept and discussing social media in a nutshell at a Lunch and Session recently.
The content was insightful, interesting and inspiring to our inhouse marketing and creative teams - who appreciated Mark's ability to engage the room and explain new trends in a clear and friendly a manner.

In my opinion, all could benefit from a more in-depth workshop on how to put social media to work in the traditional B2B emarketing environment. I hope Mark will consider doing this in the near future!

Great site. It's nice to have such a great resource to help our government clients learn more about social media.

Is social media a fad? Check out this great video by Socialnomics, I think you'll see that the question is well answered.
