The Coffee Groundz Calendar of Events
Social Media From the Inside
A Houston Social Media Breakfast event.
Event Description:
As social media tools and techniques have become more a part of the overall communication and outreach mix for companies, many are struggling with how to staff for it. While some companies are hiring social media specialists, others are adding the function to existing staff. Moreover, they still have to prove its worth to their boss while making an impact with their social media outreach.
See how three successful organizations have handled this new frontier and its increased workload. Hear from Jennifer Texada, MD Anderson; Fran Stephenson, Rackspace; and Kelly Russo, The Houston Zoo, about how they are facing this challenge. They will answer these questions and more:
- How do you determine your social media strategy?
- How did you get buy-in from your boss?
- How do you measure success?
- Are you using outside consultants or doing it yourself?
- What do you see is the future of social media in your organization?
- Who will be responsible for it?
Feel free to add the questions you are dying to know here and we might ask about that too. This is a great opportunity to pick the brains of three amazing organizations who are getting social media right. Don’t miss it!
ATTENTION: this meeting is not outdoors. If you haven't been in awhile, Coffee Groundz has been able to get the use of the space next door to the coffee shop - so never fear the weather!
