Description: Millions of people are interacting on social networking sites everyday. How can you get tapped in build your own community? Join our panel of business owners as they demystify these impactful marketing tools and provide tips and ideas on how they can have been effective, or less effective . The questions they will ask and share with you are: Is Web 2.0--Social Media, Facebook, LinkedIn, MySpace, Twitter, Wikipedia, blogging, etc.--mandatory for staying 'with it' or are they just time wasters? How do you use them to grow your business? What is the relationship between your website, your blog, and your marketing efforts? Your email list? Your social networking sites? We will help you cut through the clutter and build real connections, online and off, using social media, storytelling, and the (new, ever-changing) web.
