Im excited to announce a three part bootcamp program on social media. In conjunction with the Henrietta Chamber of Commerce and two well known social media experts – Emily Carpenter and Susan Beebe, we will be taking delegrates through the highs and lows of social media strategy.

Update: 24th Feb 2010.

The event today went well, always delighted to see so many local organizations taking social media seriously. We covered a great deal in 45 minutes and have homeworks for delegates so that they continue their journey. Looking forward to working with Emily and Susan again a month from now where we will explore strategy and the tricky but all important issue of metrics!
