In addition, each session will provide an overview of the topic, possible strategy directions and the opportunity to further develop their own ideas and approaches. Attendees will leave this workshop with a social media strategy workbook that is used to guide each session, capture their own ideas on why they may want to use a particular channel, which channels to use, how to use them, content they can develop or share thats relevant to your audience and industry.
“Our social media workshop is designed for anyone at any level within your organization,” said Peter Muir, president of Bizucate. “If you have a genuine curiosity about the way we communicate today and will communicate tomorrow, would like to keep your job, get a raise, support the customers you have, find new customers, help to hire and maybe even have to fire, theres a lot you can learn in this social media strategy workshop.”
As part of this workshop, those who register for the 2010 Global Document Conference and Vendor Forum will be sent a series of optional pre-workshop assignments to help put them in the social media workshop mood and help them maximize the time in the workshop. Attendees will learn:
