Based on our recent membership survey, I wasn’t surprised to learn that 88 percent of you are utilizing social media outlets such as Facebook. Thirty percent of you are tweeting for business on Twitter.
If so many of us are using social media marketing it must be working right? How do you know? How do you measure it? Are you managing it for maximum results or is your social media managing you?
Social media is about so much more than the occasional Facebook posting, being “liked,” or tweeting your latest deal. Next week at Business Expo, we’re giving you the opportunity to ensure you’re making the most of this important marketing tool by offering a great seminar featuring interactive strategy specialist Sloane Kelley. Her talk on “Managing Social Media Without Letting it Manage You” can take your marketing efforts to a whole new level.
She’s a terrific example of the wealth of home-grown talent we have in the Lowcountry. She’s consulted on the topic of social media for small businesses as well as the big guys like Coca Cola.
Check out the details below. Your admission to the Expo seminar also gets you a free ticket to Expo After Hours that evening where you can do a little live “social” media by networking and checking out the offerings of your fellow chamber members.
Opportunities are waiting for you at Business Expo. Don’t miss it.
