Obvious Insight #1:

It is much harder to launch into social
media just to promote your trade show
presence, than to add trade show
promotions to an existing social media
presence.
Plan A:
    When you ALREADY have Social Media followers:


• Tweet to your followers on Twitter
• Post to your friends on Facebook
• Update your connections on LinkedIn
• Post for your channel subscribers on
  YouTube
• Post for your blog RSS feed subscribers
Plan B:
    When you DON’T have Social Media followers:


• Use the show’s hashtag on Twitter: #CES
• Post comments and news on the show’s and
                                  show s
  industry Facebook Groups
• Ask questions and post news in the show’s
                                     show s
  and industry LinkedIn Groups
• Publish a video on YouTube rich with the
  show’s name as a keyword
• Um, ask Joel about email marketing
     ,                             g
Plan B Example:
Getting Re tweeted by your
        Re-tweeted
 show’s Twitter account
Big Advantage To Already Having
    A Social Media Following:

      You Can Do
      BOTH Plan A
       and Plan B!
