Social Media really is just a part of your Marketing mix

One thing I have consistently said about social media is that it doesn't perform miracles on its own. Almost every successful use of social media includes other forms of marketing too.

One example is the Foodbank RGV. Great social media use; but it includes a website, television interviews, radio interviews, billboards, special events, newspaper stories, and other traditional marketing methods. Social media ties them all together.
If all you can afford is social media, do it. However, start branching out into other forms of marketing as soon as you grow your budget.

Blogger blocks excessive posting

A while ago, I tried uploading a blog post via Android App. The upload kept failing. Not to be deterred, I deleted the app and reinstalled, to find no better success. I thought that perhaps I could email the post to Blogger. That did not work either. The email bounced back with the following: Technical details of permanent failure: You have exceeded the the allowable number of posts without solving a captcha. This happened because I imported quite a few blog posts from another blog I discontinued just yesterday. It has been less than 24 hours since the import. It makes sense. I'm rather certain the captcha speedbump is also why the mobile app refused to publish my posts. The problem can be circumvented if you post directly on the Blogger site and solve the captcha. This problem will likely resolve in the next few hours and all will be right with the universe once more.
