There will be many more sessions this week that cover off the influence of eReaders, but many of you pinged me this week asking for my take on them, because they are part of the world of Socialnomics. Don’t make the same mistake as the music and tv industry – embrace the fact that many huge costs now go away. As a point of reference, it costs twice as much to print and send the NY Times that it does to send everyone a Kindle.Sometimes it takes time to figure out a business model – this was the case with radio before Proctor and Gamble came along with producing content in the form of soap operas. A new revenue stream could be that if an author is deciding on a restaurant or soda to put into a book they can go to a repository and be paid to place it there. Not everyone will opt-in for this, but it’s a possibility. Not a zero sum game: landlines haven’t gone away, dial-up is still around EarthLink services these customers. TV didn’t kill the movie industry – but it forced them to implement surround sound, color, 3-D. Compared to TV and Radio, you have faced this the longest. Books have always been passed along and you have competed with Libraries. Now it just might be more measurable and you may be able to make money on the pass along and determine who passes along the most books, etc. YouTube: Christian the Lion
Much of a companies future success will depend on their social media strategy and execution because it’s on the frontline with the client/customer/partner = lifeblood of the business
