Debunk: “Mistakes I’ve Made In Social Media via @Leyla_a”

I’ve always enjoyed “sunday morning soliloquy,” Leyla’s blog. In fact, I’ve always liked Leylas. I’ve had three friends named by the same name all with totally different spellings but I’ve liked them all. One day, it would be a pleasure to meet and possibly befriend this fourth Leyla.

But until then, I’ve got things to say about her latest blog post: http://www.sundaymorningsoliloquy.com/2009/12/mistakes-ive-made-in-social-media.html

In it, she itemized five hard earned lessons learned from being a Social Media PR veteran. Go on, read them. I’m not going to copy paste something you can just click over to. Here it is again for your viewing pleasure: http://www.sundaymorningsoliloquy.com/2009/12/mistakes-ive-made-in-social-media.html

Here is why Leyla is totally right and how she can be totally wrong
5. I like arguing (if you couldn’t already tell by the title of this blog post). Arguing gives people something interesting to read. In any argument, you can successfully flush out a portion of the rubberneckers into your camp. Arguments are good for traffic. I personally have several youtube channels on different topics from education to the Dao. I’ll make broad sweeping statements just to polarize my audience and create long strings of comment replys on my videos. The point is ladies and gentlemen that arguing, for lack of a better word, is good. Arguing is right. Arguing works. Arguing clarifies, cuts through and captures the essence of the evolutionary spirit. Arguing, in all of it’s forms – arguing for life, for money, knowledge – has marked the upward surge of mankind and arguing – you mark my words – will not only save Your Blog but that other malfunctioning corporation called the USA. Thank you.

4. Only applies to gorgeous women. Yep. I know that 83% of you have not yet clicked over to Leyla’s post. So this is your cue: http://www.sundaymorningsoliloquy.com/2009/12/mistakes-ive-made-in-social-media.html

3. I do Rated R.
A fundamentalist conservative mom and pop shop are never going to be my clients. I want battle hardened corporate baddasses as clients. If I can scare away the people who wear knitted sweaters to work, I’ve left myself with my prime demographic. I’ve left myself with people who speak my language.

2. Totally disagree with the Title. But totally agree with everything thereafter.

1. I really want to disagree with this one. But I can’t think of anything witty to say in retort. It must be the half empty fifth of Patron Anejo.
