Non notable author: only one book in worldCat, though a good many promotional publications for his own firm. The article has a section on his view on social media, but there's no reason to highlight them except to promote his services. DGG ( talk ) 20:15, 3 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete, salt, burn with fire It failed at one AFD, and nothing has changed since - recreation needs to stop, and stop now ES&L 12:14, 10 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. I've gone through the refs and deleted the ugliest of an ugly lot, but there's nothing left to support an article. There is much false appearance of notability, but it's basically an article about a self-appointed expert who has nothing meaningful to say and has nothing meaningful said about him. Lots and lots of bloggy puff, but no reliable sources. Even the Forbes article is borderline, and that's the only thing even close to good enough. Grayfell (talk) 03:21, 11 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
