Jab, Jab, Jab, Right Hook (JJJRH) by Gary Vaynerchuk is an absolutely brilliant book for anyone seeking answers to formulate effective content strategy on social media.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>The book covers almost all big and small social media platforms namely <a href=\"http:\/\/scoreindia.org\/blog\/book-review-tao-twitter-mark-schaefer\/\">Twitter<\/a>, Facebook, Google +, Instagram, LinkedIn, Tumblr, Pinterest, Vine and Snapchat. While some of the platforms are discussed very extensively by Gary, for others he gives general guidelines that one may follow. I will come to the details as we go along the review.<\/p>\n<p>The author starts the book in an interesting manner by giving an overview of the way users consume content digitally in the present days. He also supports his viewpoint with a few statistics that convince the readers of his opinion. He explains how marketers divide their campaigns into three categories &#8211; traditional, digital and social. He compares storytelling to boxing and explains the science that one needs to know and follow for excelling in both the arts. The book is divided like a game of boxing in several rounds. In Round II he explains six characteristics of great content and compelling stories. My favourite characteristic explained by him is, \u2018good content doesn\u2019t make demands &#8211; often\u2019 and he summarises this idea with a very convincing logic. In Gary\u2019s words \u201cYour story needs to move people\u2019s spirit and build their goodwill, so that when you finally so ask them to buy from you, they feel like you\u2019ve given them so much it would be almost rude to refuse.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The rest of the book is divided into various \u2018Rounds\u2019 that explain how one can effectively tell a convincing story on various platforms. He explains Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Instagram and Tumblr in great detail and gives various (10-30 in number) good\/bad, effective\/ineffective, successful\/failure examples on each of the above mentioned platforms. He takes a lot of time to explain each of the examples by answering the following: what was good in a post, what was bad, how could a post have done way better than it did, why a post did so well, the elements lacking in a good &amp; successful post, how could the picture used be more convincing, why a text used in a post was good or bad etc. He basically does a post-mortem of all the examples he has listed that gives readers a very good idea of the do\u2019s and don\u2019ts of a particular platform. He summarizes each of the above platforms by a list of questions that a marketer can ask while executing his\/her social media strategy for that particular social network. Gary also explains what he calls \u2018Emerging Networks\u2019 at the time of writing the book &#8211; LinkedIn, Google +, Vine and Snapchat. He explains why he thinks these platforms are promising and right in the beginning of the book he emphasizes why a marketer must be friends with the emerging technology and not afraid of it.<\/p>\n<p>If I have not made my point clear by now, #JJJRH is a must read for marketers responsible for planning, managing and executing social media campaigns.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2013 Radhika Nandwani<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-58 size-medium lazyload\" data-src=\"http:\/\/scoreindia.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Radhika-Nandwani-191x300.jpg\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 191px) 85vw, 191px\" data-srcset=\"http:\/\/scoreindia.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Radhika-Nandwani-191x300.jpg 191w, http:\/\/scoreindia.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Radhika-Nandwani.jpg 252w\" alt=\"after being a student of mass communications, radhika took a plunge into the public relations profession and media relations, working with a leading PR firm. she was a founding team member of india's top best media pr school - SCoRe\" width=\"191\" height=\"300\" data-wp-pid=\"58\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 191px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 191\/300;\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-58 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/scoreindia.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Radhika-Nandwani-191x300.jpg\" sizes=\"(max-width: 191px) 85vw, 191px\" srcset=\"http:\/\/scoreindia.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Radhika-Nandwani-191x300.jpg 191w, http:\/\/scoreindia.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Radhika-Nandwani.jpg 252w\" alt=\"after being a student of mass communications, radhika took a plunge into the public relations profession and media relations, working with a leading PR firm. she was a founding team member of india's top best media pr school - SCoRe\" width=\"191\" height=\"300\" data-wp-pid=\"58\" \/><\/noscript>Radhika is the Corporate Communications Advisor at Dell\u2019s Performance Analytics Group.
