Google+ Hangouts Move Towards Acceptance as Marketing Tools

While reading the article "Google+ Hangouts Move Towards Acceptance as Marketing Tools" by Don Willmott his quotation of noted Google+ Hangout consutant, Brandee Sweesy caught my attention

Don continues his article giving examples of companies that have successfully employed Google+ and Google Hangouts in their marketing efforts over the last year.
