6th Social Media Marketing
Annual Linking Corporate Values and Consumer Desires
February 13 & 14, 2013 | The Old Mill Inn | Toronto
The social media landscape is continuously evolving and it is both the biggest communications
challenge and opportunity in decades. The way people are engaging has been radically transformed
and is having an irreversible effect on advertising and mobile communication. Facebook was
only established eight years ago and is now an integral part of the life of near 1 billion users.
The acquisitions of some of the top social vendors reflect the huge demand among businesses
for social media services. As businesses are just getting past the idea of just ‘being there’ to
enhance brand awareness/reputation, greater emphasis is being put on fostering collaboration,
dialogue/discussion and strengthening relationships. Marketers are being challenged to decide
which technologies and products they must leverage, create compelling content that gets shared,
optimize interaction with social communities and tie results to sales data. Attend this conference
to find out how to utilize social tools to listen and respond in real time, build relationships in an
authentic and meaningful way, determine the right mix of traditional and digital media, and
correlate leads, revenue and other tangible outcomes.
Why you should attend:
• Learn how to identify and capture new
prospects to drive ROI
• Understand how to use owned and earned
media to amplify paid media
• Discover the importance of fostering
consumer-to-consumer sharing
• Examine how to create integrated and cohesive
digital marketing strategies
• Hear some best practices for creating powerful
influencer programs
• Find out how to unite social media messaging
with search marketing best practices
