The New Rules of Viral Marketing: How Word-of-Mouse Spreads Your Ideas for Free by David Meerman Scott
For decades, the only way to spread our ideas was to buy expensive advertising or beg the media to write (or broadcast) about our products and services.

In it, I share ideas that will help you create your own viral marketing strategies and campaigns.

279 Days to Overnight Success: An Unconventional Journey to Full-Time Writing by Chris Guillebeau
“This is the story of how I created a new career in social media for myself in less than one year. More importantly, the personal story is a case study other writers and artists can use to build a community and create a full-time income in approximately the same amount of time — by doing
exactly what they like to do…

- Instead, ask your followers what they want and find a way to give it to them”
