Editorial Reviews

Social Media Marketing Essentials is a must read for anyone wanting to learn about the world of social media either for understanding organic or paid marketing. The ‘eyeballs’ that are spent on social media only continue to increase making it a key part of any marketing strategy these days. I enjoyed finding the history of these social media companies and the summary of their ad formats, and media measurement metrics in one place! The book provides a good first-principles-based understanding of the key social media platforms - this is really helpful since the social media landscape changes at a really fast pace but once you understand the basics well, it becomes much easier to navigate through the changes whether it’s a new content engagement format on an existing network like Instagram or a net new social media network that gains popularity in the next 5 years. Highly recommend this book.

This book written by Dr. Kavita Kamath Dhumal really captured the purpose of social media marketing in detail and has been written in a simplistic way to teach each and every aspect of marketing-basics to advanced strategies. As a finance person I never knew the intricacies of marketing campaigns and their evaluations but now I understand how every penny spent on various marketing vehicles may translate into revenue.

A Treasure Trove for Social Marketers

"Social Media Marketing Essentials You Always Wanted To Know" by Kavita Kamath and Vibrant Publishers is a rare find that exceeds expectations. It earns a well-deserved five stars from me, not just for meeting the bar but for setting it. This book isn't just a read; it's a journey into the depths of social media marketing, crafted with precision and care by Dr. Kamath, whose expertise shines brightly on every page.

Labeling this work as comprehensive might even be an understatement. It delves into the nooks and crannies of the subject with such detail and clarity that it leaves the reader informed and empowered. Whether you're gearing up for a corporate training session or knee-deep in graduate studies, this book will be your beacon. It's not just a manual; it's a masterclass in effectively marketing your brand across the bustling landscape of social media.

One of the aspects I deeply appreciated was the thoughtful inclusion of scholarly extras. The "How to Use This Book" feature and the interspersed quizzes are brilliant touches, transforming a potentially overwhelming sea of information into manageable, digestible insights. And while my own days of poring over footnotes might be behind me, I couldn't help but admire the meticulous documentation that underpins this work.

If you can call it that, my only point of contention lies with the choice of title—a decision more in the publisher's court than the authors'. Describing the contents as "essentials" somewhat underscores the breadth and depth of knowledge. This isn't a superficial skim through social media marketing; it's a deep, enriching exploration that offers more than the basics. The title might beckon to those seeking a primer, but the content is a treasure trove for those hungry for more.

At its core, "Social Media Marketing Essentials You Always Wanted To Know" is a guide that takes you by the hand and navigates the ever-changing world of social media marketing. This book covers everything from understanding the fundamental differences between traditional and social media to crafting tailored content for platforms like Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and others. It doesn't stop at creation; it goes on to explain the nuances of organic versus paid marketing, making it a crucial tool for anyone looking to devise a cost-effective strategy.

With her doctorate in social media marketing and over 17 years of teaching experience, Dr. Kavita Kamath doesn't just write about the subject; she brings it to life with practical and profound insights and strategies. This book isn't just for reading; it's for absorbing, implementing, and transforming your approach to social media marketing.

In conclusion, this book is a gem. Whether you're a seasoned marketer or a curious newbie, there's something in it for you. It's not just about the essentials; it's about mastering the art and science of social media marketing. And for that reason, I loved it.
