- So what exactly IS social engagement? You’ve heard me say that word quite a bit in this short amount of time. Here is how I want you to think about it.READ DEFINITIONWe have to facilitate this process in online communities. And when we do it right, amazing things start to happen. - Share my GOLO story next.
- Goals and Objectives BEFORE Social Media Strategy and Tactics What do you want to accomplish? Educate the masses? That’s not specific enough. Many of you have Facebook pages and active twitter accounts. Some are using Flickr, posting and sharing events but you’re not seeing the traction. At Capstrat, we believe your online involvement is an investment. It needs to be considered a long-term strategic commitment, not a short-term experimental tactic.
