Synopsis — As a special feature, we have an excerpt from Tamar Weinberg’s book The New Community Rules: Marketing On The Social Web. Tamar discusses the challenge of keeping track of and calculating the return on investment of involvement in social media. By concentrating on five specific metrics, she illustrates the reasoning behind why each is essential to the task and provides details on the means to use to get the most out of them. By finding out what is important and how to go about tracking it, you can decide if and — more importantly — how to make the most of the time you spend developing your business’s social media campaigns.
