Six Week Social Media Series: Case Studies

Over the last few years social technologies have become increasingly prevalent in the lives of average computer users. In fact, millions of Americans login daily to leading social networks to share their lives with others and keep tabs on their friends and family. Leading experts say that static Web sites will be a thing of the past within the next three to five years. At our Social Media sessions, you'll learn how online social platforms and tools - blogs, social networks, video sites and others - can help your business in 2010. Now is the time to learn how to use this technology to exponentially grow your business.

Please join us for an insightful presentation on Case Studies in Social Media, the sixth and final session in our series on Social Media for small businesses. As part of the KICKSTART 2010 Business Development Series this panel will take place on February 16th at the Sandbox Communities site in Gahanna. At this session you'll hear inspiring stories of what REALLY works with Social Media from LOCAL Social Media advocates who have turned technological stumbling blocks into stepping stones to marketing success. At this session you'll hear case studies from:
