Social media are here to stay. It's changed the rules of how target markets
interact with our brands and publications and opened up numerous channels
for how people search and interact with our content. Unsettling isn't it?
ALPSP Seminar
Making Sense of Social Media
Thursday 23 June 2011 (1000-1630)
British Institute of Radiology, 36 Portland Place, London, W1B 1AT
Chair: Katie Sayers, SAGE
"I have a Facebook group for Twitter users that Tweet about podcasters that
talk to marketing bloggers"
As publishers and societies we need to adapt to how we market (and publish!)
our products. Gone are the days when an email and print brochure would be a
complete marketing campaign and hosting one website was enough for our
customers and communities. A simple search on Google shows that whilst our
communications and channels are returned in the first page of search results
so are numerous other comments and thoughts...none of them ours. Yet, social
media offers us huge opportunities and having a social media strategy for
your business is critical to staying ahead of the competition. We have
direct access to our market and their instant opinions, low-cost ways of
engaging with people outside of our traditional reach and new ways to
support our core markets.
This seminar will showcase examples of how publishers have used social media
to support core business objectives including adapting their working
practices, developing metrics to analyse the results and examples within the
mobile space.
Who should attend: Marketing and PR professionals, from scholarly publishers
of all sizes and types who are involved in managing/responsible for their
company's social media strategy.
