Marketers would be well-served to forget the alleged lessons of the early days of social media, Mike Spataro writes. Business should forge cohesive strategies that focus on improving the business and should measure performance by tracking key indicators against well-defined benchmarks, Spataro writes.

It moves your company away from the ad-hoc tactical approach that has prevailed over the first five years of the corporate social media generation," he writes.
