Creating Successful Connections with Everything from Social Media to Face-to-Face Marketing


Creating Successful Connections with Everything from Social Media to Face-to-Face Marketing Don't panic if the social media frenzy has you feeling very antisocial! Your business marketing mix (and your personal marketing mix as you climb that corporate ladder!) needs the RIGHT way to connect at the right time. Often that is face-to-face or more traditional avenues. But, sometimes that is social media like Twitter, Facebook, or Linked In! Join other WISE Women for incredible face-to-face networking, hors d'oeuvres, and cash bar on Wednesday, August 11 from 5-7:30 pm at Eve at the BOB. Learn from businesswoman, professional speaker and National Speakers Association member, Lynne Jarman-Johnson, about how she successfully integrates the right balance of social media marketing with more traditional avenues of communication in order to get connected in a professional yet vibrant way. This is one session you'll want to tweet home about! $25, includes one drink ticket.
