Outbound marketing
“Outbound marke/ng is the tradi/onal form
of marke/ng where a company ini/ates the
conversa/on and sends its message out to an
audience. ”

6. Inbound marke/ng is adver/sing a company
through blogs, podcasts, video, eBooks,
enewsle@ers, whitepapers, SEO, social media
marke/ng, and other forms of content marke/ng.
David Meerman Sco@ recommends that marketers
"earn their way in" (via publishing helpful
informa/on on a blog etc.) in contrast to outbound
marke/ng where they "buy, beg, or bug their way
in"Credit: Wikipedia

RELATE TO SOCIAL MEDIA
& WHAT YOU’RE
TRYING TO ACCOMPLISH?”
Thursday, May 2, 13
10. WHAT IS SOCIAL MEDIA?
Social media refers to the means of interac/ons among people in
which they create, share, and exchange informa2on and ideas in
virtual communi/es and networks ..."a group of Internet-‐based
applica/ons that build on the ideological and technological
founda/ons of Web 2.0, and that allow the crea/on and exchange of
user-‐generated content ... social media depend on mobile and web-‐
based technologies to create highly interac/ve plaMorms via which
individuals and communi/es share, co-‐create, discuss, and modify
user-‐generated content. It introduces substan/al and pervasive
changes to communica/on between organiza/ons, communi/es and
individuals.

50. WHY THE
VISUAL WEB
MATTERS
FACEBOOK is cornering the
market of what we used to call
Kodak moments. THEY ARE
BECOMING FACEBOOK
MOMENTS.
As ReadWriteWeb's Kevin Kelleher
memorably put it ... when Facebook
bought another Visual Web startup,
face recogni/on company Face.com:
"Facebook is cornering the market
of what we used to call Kodak
moments. They are becoming
Facebook moments."

52. WHY THE
VISUAL WEB
MATTERS
"Blogs were one of the earliest forms of
social networking where people were
wri2ng 1,000 words," says Dr. William J.
Ward, Social Media professor at Syracuse
University. "When we moved to status
updates on Facebook, our posts became
shorter. NOW WE ARE EVEN
SKIPPING WORDS ALTOGETHER
and moving towards more visual
communica2on with social-‐sharing
sites like Pinterest."

connec/on to our

words can’t.

online reader wants to be able to immediately scroll through content and scan subheaders, bold text, and even bullet
points. For example, here is how we have applied bullet points and different font sizes to the same content in order to
make it more visually appealing:
