How to Spot a Social Media "Expert" Who's Full of It | The Perfect Storm Team | Scoop.it
Image A lot of folks position themselves as social media “experts” but sometimes it can be difficult figuring out who really knows what they’re talking about and who’s merely a guru or a ninja.
Stan Smith's comment, September 15, 2012 4:11 AM
I hate it when people introduce me as a social media expert!!! I don't see myself that way at all. I happen to know a lot of social media experts and I read a lot in order to share a handful of things everyday, but I'm NOT an expert by any stretch of the imagination! How about you, do you see yourself as a social media expert?
