To state the obvious, do keep in mind that soc net platforms, rankings, SEO strategies, recommendation sites, Blogrolls, etc are all tools that are inert and useless, unless tied to defined biz objectives, without which they accumulate..but add up to nothing.
Each of the various platforms serves a very different (or similar) function, and knowing them all or even most of them is a fools errand (and impossible). Let your objectives drive your participation. Do you want to drive buyers into the buying cycle? Are you seeking members to an organization. Do you want contributions to a cause. Are you trying to achieve branding or audience building. Know these, and you’ll know the how best to use the rest
cheers
I, too, would like the follow-up materials. Thanks so much.
I’m not going to be available for the session but would like to get the follow-up materials and recording information as well.

Could you please send me an email about other webinars that might help me and my associates become more informed about how to use and profit from the use of Big Tent with the organizations I am associated with? I did sign up for this one, but would like one that is more of an overview of the whole process/business so I can share it with board/committee members of other groups I below to.
I am associated with the particular Big Tent site I belong to now through another organization where one of the founding members knew about Big Tent and set up our site.
Will this webinar be archived somewhere so people can visit it at another time?
Could I also get a copy of the recording and slides.
Thanks so much
I also will not be in my office, may I please get a copy of recording and slides.
Thank you so much.
I am very interested in the webinar, however can’t participate… I’m working. is it possible to have the slides too?

Emily
Yep! We’ll have a link to the recording and a copy of the slides to download. Thanks for your interest in our social media webinar. We’re really impressed with the turnout so far!

Cannot attend but would like to receive materials (recording/transcript, slides, etc.) Many Thanks!
Was this canceled, or does registration say that because it was held already? I would like to see the slides other materials if they are available.
Thanks.
