Welcome to episode #276 of Six Pixels Of Separation - The Twist Image Podcast. If you're thinking about online communities, conversations and the true power of Social Media, you need to be following Valeria Maltoni. She helped build Fast Company Magazine's online community back in the day and since then, Valeria has become a true advocate for the power of marketers to build online communities and how to leverage and nurture online influencers as brand champions. Her highly popular Blog, Conversation Agent, acts as a hub for many of her peers in the Marketing industry and is a "must-read" Blog (I'm in that lot!). She's been a guest of the show before, and now we're here to discuss the business behind conversations... and if there truly is one. Enjoy the conversation...
