Social Media Techniques by Gary Vaynerchuk
The social media revolution has changed the way we live our lives and conduct our business. Learn social media techniques that will improve your sales from a master marketer at an upcoming event in January in Baton Rouge!

Two clubs, the American Advertising Federation of Baton Rouge and Sales and Marketing Executives of Greater Baton Rouge, are joining forces to host this social media event on Thursday, January 21, 2010 at 7 p.m. at Independence Park Theatre, 7800 Independence Blvd. Tickets are $10 for AAF-BR and SME-GBR members and $25 for the general public. Call the Independence Theatre box office at 225-216-0660 or go to theparktheatre.com to purchase your tickets.
Gary Vaynerchuk will decode how social media platforms work in tandem to give your personal brand strength and reach and turn you into a force to be reckoned with. Gary has captured attention with his pioneering, multi-faceted approach to personal branding and business. After primarily utilizing traditional advertising techniques to build his family’s local retail wine business into a national industry leader, Gary rapidly leveraged social media tools such as Twitter and Facebook to promote Wine Library TV, his video blog about wine. In so doing, he learned that the Internet offers up potential via these free tools for businesses and individuals alike to develop their own brand. Gary will touch on his core themes for best utilizing these tools, including why listening is more important than speaking, the importance of authenticity in business, and what it means to “scale your caring.” Learn more about Gary at garyvaynerchuk.com, or catch him on Twitter where he has over 840,000 followers!
Join Gary at a Wine and Cheese Reception before the event from 4:30 to 6 p.m. Cost to attend the reception is $250. Contact Connie McLeod at 225.231.5549, ext. 3529.

Private messaging is another solid feature that a social media site should have. Any way you can increase communication amongst your site’s users, the better. Private messaging is a great way to keep your users coming back to the site. It’s not as intrusive as email.
