Social Media, RWD and Hidden Secrets....oh my!
Heidi Stanclift
You have heard of social media. You may even understand the value social media can bring to your business. Now wondering how to start? Alicia Williams is the CEO of Aliste Internet Marketing and will offer an introductory session to social media for business at Joomla Day New England. She will cover strategies and best practices to get the most out of your social media activities, including:
· What is social media marketing really and why it is important
· An overview of social media and how to evaluate the channels that are right for your business or organization
· How small businesses and organizations are using these low-cost tools to gain visibility, develop relationships and drive sales and response
· How to create good content for your social media marketing campaigns
· How to incorporate social media marketing into your business life without losing productivity.
· How to create an integrated marketing plan with social media, email marketing and other marketing efforts
Also at our event, Brian Teeman will speak on 3 different topics. He is giving the opening keynote presentation which will look at Joomla, its history, evolution, culture, features and future through the medium of TV.
His next topic of the day will be on Responsive Web Design (RWD). Mashable says that 2013 will be the year of Responsive Web Design and Joomla is already ahead of the curve with Joomla 3 providing RWD out of the box with Bootstrap. The benefits of RWD are obvious: You build the website once, and it works seamlessly across thousands of different screens. Don’t think your website will be viewed on a mobile OR a desktop computer. Half of your audience isn’t going to be mobile. All of your audience will be….half of the time! How will that affect your design?
Our ending keynote from Brian is on Hidden JCE Secrets. JCE is the ultimate content editor for Joomla but do you really know all there is to know? Are you using it to the max or are you only using a small percentage of its features? Did you know you can easily create popups and slideshows, add downloads and embed videos? Don’t waste your time installing and configuring lots of plugins when JCE can do it all for you.
