At PR News’ Twitter webinar, communicators with a proven track record in building communities on Twitter will show you how the savviest brands and PR agencies are growing a loyal base of followers on Twitter with tweets that are useful to a target audience, sharable content, hashtags that focus on of-the-moment topics and listening habits that will ensure that you become more than just a broadcaster of brand messages.
How do you really use this tool to boost your company’s reputation, to drive sales, to get the media’s attention, avert a crisis and communicate with your many stakeholders? It takes more than 140 characters to show you how: so, invest less than 2 hours of your time in this Twitter Webinar and you WILL be a Twitter expert and a better social media communicator.
PR News has lined up a distinguished panel of PR professionals and media experts to show you how to use Twitter, the do’s and the don’ts of tweeting and most importantly, how to tie Twitter to your business goals. They will present very tactical case studies showing what their specific communications goals were, and how they used Twitter to move the needle. This first generation of Twitter all-stars from the consumer brand, b2b, publishing and PR agency sectors will share the tactics used to engage consumers with their brands, boost their company's reputation, drive sales, increase their audience, communicate with stakeholders during a crisis and more.
As these Twitter experts will also show you, forging two-way, authentic and useful connections on Twitter now will pay off later should your brand have to face a reputation crisis.
By now, tweeting may seem like second nature, but attending this 90-minute webinar will show you how to make the most of this evolving and essential communications platform.
