We're interrupting our series 'Tech Meets Promo' by discussing social media, social selling and what this means to us today. During this weeks discussion, we make an unplanned call to Nathan Bailey with Ideation, a successful distributor in Portland, OR and discuss issues relates to social, including:

• What we are doing now, different from when we first began using social
• What keeps people from using social more for their company (time or comfort?)
• Facebook and the growing interest in Pinterest
• Content development and the importance of engagement

The PK Podcast is a weekly conversation hosted by Mark Graham and Bobby Lehew featuring guest suppliers, distributors and service providers discussing opportunities, challenges and insights into the promotional products business. The purpose of the podcast is to to bring the conversation we are already having at shows and restaurants to a public forum where we can all listen and learn.
