Guide To Social Media Analysis Available

My friend and fellow social media consultant, Nathan Gilliatt, has done it. He's gone and created a guide to social media analysis companies, compiling a list of useful vendors from around the globe that can help your company understand the online world.

The Guide to Social Media Analysis is geared toward answering three questions:

1. Who offers social media analysis services?
   
2. What do they really offer?
   
3. What makes one vendor different from the others?

The result is an independent look at the options for clients and agencies who are looking for social media monitoring, measurement and research. Vendors are included based on meeting the selection criteria: they offer social media analysis services or software using their own technology. They did not pay to be included. The Guide covers vendors with applications for marketing, PR, customer service, security, investors and more.

The cost of the guide is $500, and it is available for download at Social Target. More information on the creation of the book can be found at Nathan's Blog, the Net Savvy Executive.
