But few reveal the sometimes counterintuitive rules of creating true worth that is unique to the social space—you must continually deliver value when, where, and how people want to receive it. In Renegades Write the Rules, author, founder, and CEO of Digital Royalty Amy Jo Martin shares her indispensable insight into this value-creation potential. Having pioneered how brands can be humanized and monetized, she demonstrates how social media has changed the face of how individuals and organizations innovate. Martin not only reveals the strategies behind the social media sensation of today's top celebrities, brands, and sports icons that she helped build, she also demonstrates how anyone (or any company) can build a loyal and lucrative digital influence. They can do this, she says, by bucking previous assumptions and embracing their inner renegade, and she shows them how, step by step, with the eight essential Renegade Rules: Rule 1: Be the Media Rule 2: Show Some Skin Rule 3: Unmask Your Motives Rule 4: Get Comfortable Being Uncomfortable Rule 5: Ask Forgiveness Rather Than Permission Rule 6: Consensus Is the True Authority Rule 7: There's a New ROI in Town Rule 8: The Act of Good Can Be Scaled In addition to the eight Renegade Rules, the book is filled with behind-the-scenes success stories from noteworthy celebrities such as Shaquille O'Neal, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, and Dana White, as well as iconic brands including Nike, FOX Sports, and DoubleTree by Hilton. As you will see, the people and entities in these pages have amplified their following exponentially and monetized their brands beyond what they could have accomplished with traditional marketing. People want to be heard, to be involved, to be entertained, to be adventurous, to be informed. With Renegades Write the Rules you will learn how to apply the basic law of social media success: Humans connect with humans, not logos. Reviews "Ever wonder what the early Western settlers were thinking? They were trailblazers willing to risk everything to explore the new world.
