Social Media at it’s Finest

A seemingly simple request on LinkedIn for feedback on HubSpot vs. Marketo and Eloqua’s lead nurturing highlights social media at it’s finest. The thread takes about 15 minutes to read through but it’s worth reading, especially because it garnered the response from all the major c-level execs at each company.

The thread captures everything I love and hate about social media:

  • Real feedback from real people trying to be helpful
  • Companies refuting false claims / clarifying product offerings
  • Companies trying to position themselves and get in the game
  • Individuals without a real thoughtful response, just trying to get noticed
  • “Experts” who aren’t truly experts but think they are

Did I miss anything? What do you love and hate about social media?
