Hands On PR and Social Media for the Web 2.0 World
Tuesday, January 27, 2009 / 9am-4pm- Phoenix, Arizona

Communicating with others has expanded beyond traditional media like TV, radio and print.  What does it take to get your message heard on Facebook, Twitter, Blogs…how do you even grasp all these new ways to communicate? Every day, people are telling you why you and your company SHOULD be using social media, but no one is telling you HOW to use it.

In this 1 day intensive workshop, students will actively participate in learning how to find the right way to get their message heard, including new techniques for public relations and social media. Whether you have an in house marketing and pr department or you’re a staff of one, you always need to be a brand ambassador. Bring your laptop, you'll be setting up your own accounts as we go. We’ll start at the beginning- the only qualifications you need are an eagerness to learn (though there are some requirements). You’ll be taught by a practitioner with a history of success in the field.

You’ll learn to create, use and manage your Passpack, Twitter, Myspace and Facebook accounts. Lastly, you’ll create and learn how to use a Wordpress blog, as well as be given the Press Center theme for wordpress, so your business can build an online press center. Want more specifics? Check out our schedule, then register for either one or both days.
