  1. Have you ever promised a client coverage in their chosen publication in order to win their business?
  2. Most report Facebook is now largely a pay-to-play platform for brands. How have you changed strategy? Client reaction?
  3. Has anyone used Twitter advertising in a campaign? #

  5. As we enter the second quarter of 2014, what are your clients' chief concerns right now?
