This is a presentation I gave at GSMI's Social Media Strategy Summit on September 21st, 2011 in Boston: B2B social media presents an opportunity to not only cultivate communities on social platforms, but also amplify awareness for a company’s brand. Crosschannel marketing requires businesses to create relevant content for their subscriber base as increased relevancy spurs increased engagement with customers online. It’s important to understand how all the pieces, from monitoring conversations to customer interactions to analytics that show ROI, are a necessity in processing how social services have transformed the way people communicate, share and make purchase decisions. In this session, you will learn how to use Twitter to better market your services and establish industry contacts. Attendees will also learn how businesses can best utilize Twitter, how to build a Twitter following, and how to take advantage of all the search tools and other platform applications to show ROI.
