Whether social media is part of your official job description, something that’s landed on your desk in the office because everybody else is too nervous about it, or it’s something you’d like to do professionally, there’s nothing like some proper guidance.
Online PR and social media company, Simply Zesty had served up just that in the form of a free e-book to help people understand social media.

The e-book is a culmination of content produced regularly on the Simply Zesty blog. The e-book was built using the best bits of the blog and covers the basics of social media and blogging, some advanced tips and tutorials too. The 179-page tome also explains how to use video online; how to grow your blog and build community; 10 video tips on how to get more out of Tweetdeck; a complete guide to Twitter; and 50 resources that will help improve your blogging.
