Come learn what works and what doesn’t.
By Miiko Mentz
The Web’s social landscape is scattered with an overwhelming array of social media tools, platforms and communities from Twitter to Facebook, and a whole bunch of lesser known ones intertwined. All these social tools, platforms and communities are great for a variety of reasons, but they are especially important for marketers and anyone interested in navigating the social landmines and building a social media program. If that’s you and you want to learn how to implement an effective social media program then check out BlogWell, where some of the biggest brands out there are coming together for one afternoon to share what they’ve learned, what works and what doesn’t.
On June 23 in San Francisco, BlogWell is bringing together eight brands — Cisco, Dell, General Mills, Intuit, Kaiser Permanente, Pepsi, SAP, and Wells Fargo — that will present case studies on real-world social media campaigns. The companies will share with you how to get started, get past roadblocks and implement a successful social media program.
Social media continues to present some serious challenges for companies, especially large organizations. Help your company avoid some of the pitfalls and challenges by learning practical, how-to advice on creating great content, getting management buy-in, educating employees, keeping lawyers and regulators happy, having simple and ethical disclosure, and engaging fans.
