This podcast is being organized for the purpose of gathering supporting research for the Social Media Buyers Guide Project from Social Media Club. Join SMC Founder Chris Heuer and E-Storm CEO William Gaultier to hear leading social media service providers share their top three pieces of advice for individuals and organizations evaluating and purchasing social media technologies, services and media. Panelists will also share the three most important questions they recommend asking any social media services provider. Special guests include Christopher Carfi of Cerado, David Berkowitz of 360i, social media consultant Peter Fasano, Roxanne Darling of Barefeet Studios and Jen McLean of Technorati. We would like to invite other social media service providers and social media buyers to call in to share your thoughts at (646) 716-9346, or just listen in on the web at http://www.blogtalkradio.com/socialmediaclub/2009 /03/04/The-Social-Media-Buyers-Guide-Insights-from-Service-Providers.
