Mind the Gap: Thank You!

Posted under Conference & Speakers/Presentations

I just wanted to take a moment to say thank you to anyone, everyone who attended our session, Mind the Gap: Connecting the Generations. It was truly an honor to get to present before you and we so appreciated your participation. The information we got back from program participants was wonderful; you provided us with 75+ ideas, strategies, and best practices that you use to connect with a multi-generational population.  Over the coming days, we will be sharing that feedback with you. Until then, thank you for your contributions to our presentation. If you didn’t have a chance to attend, feel free to share, write, post, pass along the feedback as you deem appropriate when it becomes available.  Thanks again from the three of us, Sarah, Karen, and Billie.

Is Social Marketing in Your Future?

Posted under Conference & Uncategorized

One of the recurring themes at this year’s CMA conference is the potential of social marketing to transform your business.  LinkedIn, Facebook, and other social marketing sites are drawing the attention of conference attendees.

But what the heck is social marketing? Is it real or just a fad? And can it benefit me even if I’m not a big wig with a big budget?

Well, we have an exclusive audio interview with Conference exhibitor Jason Alba, the author of “I’m on Facebook . . . Now What?”  Jason helps make plain sense of what can be confusing for a newbie and shows us how we can leverage the powerful potential of social marketing. 

You can download a higher quality version of the interview by clicking the link at the right.
