26. Brands and blogging don’t enjoy a marriage made in heaven

27. Blogging changes the writer’s behaviour more than it changes the readers’ behaviour

28. If your brand is going to blog you need to understand what you want to change about it

29. This is uncomfortable because brands usually like changing consumer behaviour not the other way round

30. There are no ‘old’ or ‘new’ media – there are communications media and social media

31. Communications media are the natural habitat of brands

32. Their use of social media is problematic

33. Social media demand that you trade control for influence

34. Unless brands are happy with this they should stay out of social media

35. Just use it to listen to the conversation

36. Social media is all about conversation

37. Brands only have a role if they can make the conversation more interesting

38. Advertising can’t succeed against the conversation but it can influence and contribute to the conversation

45. Social media can’t be measured so lets stop trying

48. We have to get comfortable with managing the immeasurable

49. Lets face it the truth is that all good advertising is a leap of faith

50. Only poor advertising is predictable
