Minisa Chapter invites you to attend our monthly meetings to become better acquainted with our organization.
Special Informational and Networking Program
PROGRAM: Are You Part of the Social Media Explosion?
Creating Corporate and Personal Brand Interactivity
Social Media is the hot topic right now. Did you know that social media is growing 3 times faster than overall internet usage? Checking social networks is the 4th most popular internet activity that people undertake ahead of email, and 3 out of 4 Americans are using social media on a daily basis. From Feb '08 to Feb '09 Twitter grew 1382%! and Facebook 240%. What is your digital presence? How many points of contact do you have and how can social media help (or hurt) you professionally? More and more businesses are joining the "twitterverse" . . . virtual relationships give multiple benefits to a company's web presence: customers want companies to engage them. In this half-hour overview, Mr. Swinicki will discuss what social media is, why it's important (and not just for the young), how you can use it for professional networking and some of Cessna's successes in social media. This will be followed by a discussion on the benefits of IAAP membership and an opportunity for guests to join the chapter. There will be door prizes and other fun stuff!
