ForewordHere's how I met Justin Levy: I decided to drive to a Jeff Pulver event in LongIsland. Justin mentioned that he was in Connecticut and that I could swing by andpick him up, if I wanted company for the ride. Or something like that.The event was great, but the conversations were better. Justin was passionate, hadlots of ideas, and had some interesting experience in his background. By the timewe'd left the event, I was pretty sure I wanted him to work for me at my new company, New Marketing Labs.This has a lot to do with how Facebook works. We tend to know a lot about peoplenow before we meet them. We learn lots about who they spend their time with. Weknow what they talk about. We know what upsets them, what makes them happy,what keeps them going. We know when their birthday is, and all these kinds ofthings.Justin Levy is one of the vanguard of people who leads into every business experience with relationships as a top priority. He considers every one of his businessassociates and clients "friends" (with or without the air quotes). He slips betweenplatforms like Facebook and Twitter and SMS messaging as easily as you mightaddress two different people at the same dinner table.What Justin teaches in this book is that the tools are just a way to get closer. Hegives you plenty of technical detail, but you'll miss out if you don't read behind thelines. This books fits with the new philosophy of human business: build from sustainable, relationship-minded business and you'll get much further in the world.Sure, you need to understand how the tools get you from point A to point B, butdon't miss the journey.A few years later, I still don't regret giving Justin a ride to that conference. You won'tregret picking up this book.—Chris BroganNew York Times and Wall Street Journal bestselling author of Social Media 101 andpublisher at chrisbrogan.com.
