Igniting Opportunities: Measuring and Monetizing Social Media

Wednesday, April 25
8:30 – 11:00 a.m.
Davis & Gilbert LLP
1740 Broadway, 19th Floor

 

By invitation only

Social media is so ingrained with the work being done in marketing and public relations that it’s hard to separate it as a distinct item on the communications menu.

While everyone is immersed in social media, how successful are firms and organizations in pricing it, measuring its impact, and turning “tweets” and “likes” into dollars and cents?

Discussions at this invitation-only roundtable breakfast will be led by experienced, big-think facilitators will stimulate discussion about social media practices that impact the bottom line.

Attendees will benefit from a knowledge exchange with an audience of top marketers and agency executives, facilitated by industry leaders.
