Social Media is still a hot topic, and although the concept has been around for a while, it’s only now that companies are beginning to sit up and realise that it’s something that they should be doing. Whether it’s creating a Facebook profile, setting up twitter or even a YouTube channel, there are many ways that you can get involved. Don’t worry though, if you’ve not managed to book your place on a Social Media Workshop, we will be running a Social Media Marketing seminar on the 25th February. Speakers for this include KMP’s Chairman – Bill Daring, Dominic Sparkes from Tempero and Mike Antliff from Huzu. Bill will open the seminar with an introduction to social media and the different tools available, as well as using some case studies to show how companies are effectively using social media as part of their Marketing Strategy. Mike will then discuss online communities, including important things to consider when building a community, and Dominic will talk about how to manage communities 24/7.
