Strategies for Social-Marketing Success: A Hands-On Workshop
For professionals who understand the language of social networking and have responsibility for fundraising, marketing, or web communications.

To begin to create such a strategy for your organization, you’ll:
- Learn about social-marketing campaigns that have changed the world, and analyze their most effective elements
- Discover and practice hands-on tools for operating effectively in the online environment, engaging and maintaining the attention of your audience
- Understand how to build a web strategy and online presence that stands out to your target audience
