rave reviews

“becky livingston has created a remarkable handbook that every accountant should have within arm’s reach. today, every company is a “technology” company. an accounting firm is no exception! it is one thing to “do” social media, but this book will guide the accountant through not just “doing” social media, but having quality social media interaction and leveraging the power of this platform to help propel their professional reputation and practice to the next level.”

– jim bourke, cpa, citp, cff, cgma, partner, withumsmith+brown,
cpa firm technology strategist

 

 

“this is a great step-by-step guide for establishing social media goals and determining what platforms will help you achieve them. it flows between providing spot-on educational information and serving as a workbook that walks you through exercises to help you understand how and when to communicate, how to measure success, ways to get staff to assist in your efforts, and much more. the solid examples and suggested tools provided will not only help those new to social media, but will assist those looking to increase their social media effectiveness, as well.”

– katie tolin, growth & profitability consultant for cpas,
former marketing executive at bdo, ss&g, rea.
