Social Technology for Community Building & Engagement


These are links I recommend to clients on a regular basis for use when considering tactics, strategies and management approaches to incorporating social media in comprehensive communications plans.

These links should provide at least a good start to education about evaluating the requirements for your business, organization to implement and manage social media. Leading from this I feel it necessary to point out the following: the basic idea of marketing, advertising and public relations is to not simply push out information arbitrarily. Instead plan, pretest and strategize. To hire me for a project, please contact me here.
