~Harvey Mackay
New York Times #1 best-selling author of Swim with The Sharks Without Being Eaten Alive
“Everyone wants more impact, influence, branding, and recognition. On the Internet it’s known as Klout. For many, Klout scores have remained a mystery, UNTIL NOW. Terry Brock and Gina Carr have written the benchmark book, “Klout Matters,” and reveal the importance, the relevance, and the secrets behind this Internet imperative. As a Klout thought leader myself, I recommend that you buy this book, and implement the ideas and strategies, so that you go from Klout to significance.”
~Jeffrey Gitomer
New York Times Best Selling Author of The Little Red Book of Selling and 21.5 Unbreakable Laws of Selling
“I’ve had my doubts about systems that create “arbitrary” social media scores. What if someone has tremendous influence in the “offline” world yet isn’t that active on social sites? Well, the truth is we now live in an age of influence marketing and, in order for your business to really thrive, it’s critical to be strategically active on all the major social sites. In Klout Matters, Gina and Terry walk you through the exact steps needed to build a sizable platform, leverage key relationships, and create real influence for greater success. This book is a must read for anyone striving to become a respected thought leader.”
