Blogs: The Next Big Thing in Marketing & Communications
ELISA CAMAHORT, Founder and President, Worker Bees
WEDNESDAY, MAY 18, 2005
Elisa Camahort, Founder and President, Worker Bees
The blogger community tends toward hyperbole when defining the
potential impact of blogging. In truth, blogging is an evolutionary
technological tool, neither revolutionary nor disruptive. Blogging
provides new efficiencies and economies of scale to the business
world--primarily by carrying out already familiar functions and
strategies in new ways. This Virtual Seminar will outline how adoption
of a blog in your organization can add significant value to your
marketing and communications functions.
The session will include:
* What is a blog and why should you care?
* Ad sales: Go where the eyes are.
* PR & Marketing: Same marketing goals, just new tools; a new,
viral, completely opt-in tool.
* Customer/Audience outreach: Keeps your customers close.
* Project Management: Don't suffer through another cumbersome and
confusing email thread.
