Todd is also a podcaster – he is the host of The Pivot: Marketing Backstories, where he interviews some of the world’s great marketers who tell their interesting life and career backstories.
The Host’s Perspective:
If you’re like a lot of marketers you’re probably overwhelmed with all the different social media channels and platforms. And every month there are a few more newcomers that the marketing press proclaim every marketer should be using.
In reality you don’t need to be on every social media platform. You only need to be on the ones that your buyer persona uses and which are helping to generate leads and close sales. If you are doing any kind of content marketing, you should be on SlideShare. Otherwise, you’re tying one marketing hand behind your back.
In his book, Todd Wheatland explains the hidden powers of SlideShare. The book not only serves as a guide to SlideShare, it also shows you how beautifully SlideShare works for lead generation.
One other thing about this book – sure, it’s about SlideShare but aside from the topic of SlideShare it’s also great book about content marketing.
