Despite the soaring popularity of social media, some businesses still believe that they can "opt out" by not participating. In today's networked world, that's impossible. Clients and would-be customers are talking about you, whether you like it or not. Joining this online conversation is crucial, and that makes the creation of a social business agenda essential.

In just 10 minutes, Sandy describes exactly what it takes to create a social business agenda. For companies hesitant to embrace social, she offers a lot of encouragement and practical suggestions on how to experiment. If your business is already using social, she provides guidance on how to gauge the influence of your engagement in the social world.
