DeVry and Illinois Worknet Seminar
Posted by: | Comments
I was recently asked to be the subject matter expert for a seminar series on social media by DeVry University and Illinois WorkNet. I have led seminars for DeVry University in the past (and hope to in the future), along with their partnership with local Chamber of Commerce’s – but this was my first time speaking in a webinar format for the Illinois WorkNet program. This company helps associations and organizations with their workforce and helps people with the work related needs. Their tagline is “Training, Connecting and Developing Illinois’ Workforce.”
Such a great program and several great people working together for a good cause. Click this link to see the presentation and questions that came out of the two sessions.
Social Media Lab in Peoria
Posted by: | Comments
Carol and I spoke today at the Peoria HBA, teaching Social Media “Engage in the Online Conversation” and Social Media Lab “Building a Social Media Program from the ground up.”
This seminar teaches companies how to effectively use social media to attract the search engines, as well as friends, fans and followers. We spent a lot of time today talking about the value of social media and demonstrating how to use social media to build brand, generate leads and increase sales…and best of all, track and monitor return on investment.
Blogs and blogging started the day, and we showed how to define your audience and target, build an effective blog and use that blog as the foundation of your program. We then discussed Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn and the effective use of those sites to drive traffic. We see a lot of companies and ‘experts’ building programs that use these sites, but very few can show direct results in a tracking report. We can and do every day. As a true social media agency, let me know if we can help you build an effective program.
