Author’s Commentary
The key to successful and optimized multi-channel
marketing campaigns is using each channel in the
optimal way – for example, TV is great for mass
awareness (branding) while digital tactics
generally are more performance-like. That’s what
I mean by “left-side” is for branding and “right-
side” is for performance.”

According to a recent Social Media
Marketing University survey of more
than 1,000 marketing professionals in
the U.S., brands are mostly using
Twitter to spread brand awareness.
Surprisingly, driving sales is not nearly
as important to marketers.
Twitter is for Awareness
