INK PUBLIC RELATIONS

Two hours – a good chunk of time to make a point, or twenty.

I’m talking with the Central Texas PRSA chapter tomorrow morning in Waco on the topic of social media and will try to keep my points in that 1-20 range (I’m kidding – I’m a PR purist – of course there will only be 3 key messages ).

What do I have to say on social media you might ask? After all, I only joined twitter last November, my Facebook friends are those people I actually personally know and blogging is a fairly new tool in my arsenal as well. While all of that is true, it doesn’t make my experience any less valuable. I’m not a “social media expert” (nor do I want to be) – I’m a PR expert and use social media technology to do what I’ve always done – communicate with my (and my clients’) key audiences. From that perspective, I’ve got lots of fun stuff to share on how these great tools have made those conversations richer and made me more effective in my profession. I dig PR, I dig what these tools are doing for PR, and I dig sharing what I’ve learned with new people. And if all goes well, I bet I learn a little something along the way too.

Watch out Waco, me and my (less than) 20 points are on the way!

If you’ve got a tip, trick or trend you’d like me to share with the audience…you know what to do (use that little white box right there, yep, right there below this post…)
