Social Marketing Forum Video

June 21st, 2008 by Biz2Biz

Ninety people attended and another 12 joined in the live streaming video of the Recession Proof Social Marketing forum Wednesday at the Salem Civic Center. Many thanks to those who attended, our panel of experts, Videographer Don Thorne and the Salem Civic Center.

Forum participants were surprisingly impressed by the display of social media tools that are available to businesses today for marketing and recruiting. Ira Kaufman opened up the event with challenges business people face and revealed why social media is a powerful and cost effective marketing medium. Stuart Mease enlightened us with success stories of how businesses can use Facebook as low cost advertising and a tool for target marketing. Beth Deel and Wendy Schuyler introduced "The World of Twitter" as they beamed their presentation across the web "Twitter Style". Eric Melniczek shared real life examples and of how LinkedIn can be used to market and recruit for your company. Patsy Stewart explained Blogs in Plain English and 8 ways companies can benefit from blogging.

For those of you who weren't able to attend the event and for those who just want a re-cap, you can visit the Roanoke Biz2Biz Streaming Video Archive where we keep videos of our past shows.
