Peter Kim led a spirited discussion on the value of social media marketing at Austin’s Social Media Breakfast 3, held this morning at Rudy’s “Country Store” & Bar-B-Q.
Peter, who’s currently building an Austin Ventures-backed enterprise social computing startup, asked several pointed questions of our group:
- Does social media marketing matter at all?
- Does social media marketing scale?
- Why are enterprises still blocking employee access to social computing tools and applications?
- Do A-list bloggers really care about “the conversation?”
Peter’s generally not shy about stirring things up, and today was no exception.
