The Big Story
Why brands should disclose social media influencers
Advertisers should disclose when social content was bought not just to protect their brand reputations, but because it is the law, industry leaders say. "When such deals are not disclosed, it's putting the brand at risk, it's putting the agency at risk and it's also putting the content creator at risk," said Ted Murphy, CEO of social ad platform IZEA.

How Olive Garden freshened up its social presence
Olive Garden farmed out its social media promotions to an agency and lacked in-house staff dedicated to social customer service until about a year ago, when parent company Darden shifted control of social media from marketing to public relations, built an in-house team to handle community management and asked staff to focus on guest relations rather than on branded messages.
