A main criticism of social media is that it's impossible to measure its impact.
Not so, says KD Paine, author of the new book "Measuring Public Relationships."
Paine has made a career of social media measurement; in addition to her recent book, she is also the founder and CEO of KD Paine & Partners LLC and writes her own blog, PR Measurement.
Recently, HubSpot's Rick Burnes caught up with Paine. He spoke with her about today's marketplace, ways to form relationships with stakeholders and some current success stories.

From the video above: "Figure out what's not working; don't try to justify your existence."
