16 October 2007: Social Media Marketing

Your customers are tiring of vetted copy, fluffy imagery and one-way marketing monologue. They're demanding a dialogue with the companies they do business with, one of transparency, honesty and full engagement. And through the power of the Internet, their voices can become as loud or louder than your own in the market.

Enter social media marketing, a growing way to be where your audiences are and to engage them in honest conversations around the value of your offering.

Join Ad Club Seattle as we explore this new(ish) medium and learn how it affects your brand and you personally. We'll take a look at consumer needs, best practices and today's most relevant sites and in the process provide insights into how we arrived at this point in time and where we may be headed next.

Guest Speaker: Eric Weaver
Principle of Brand Dialogue & Editor of branddialogue.com

Guest Speaker: Laura Porto Stockwell
VP, Director of Interactive, Publicis
