CableFAX Webinar:

Maximizing Social Media

Presented by CableFAX

Buy On Demand

 

Personalized Certificate for all Attendees



Think you’re doing all you could to maximize social media so it can generate big returns for your product or show?
Think again.


With all the noise out there, cable marketers need to go beyond fan pages, contests and forced social interaction to drive eyeballs to shows and wallets to VOD. They need to fully engage potential customers and viewers using the latest tools at their disposal. Have you integrated geo-location services into your social media marketing matrix? Are you using social media to capture information that you can use for future campaigns? And are you integrating your social media activities organically into your overall outreach? If not, you’re probably falling behind and risk losing out to your competitors. As the industry gets ready for the CTAM Summit in New Orleans, join us for an introspective webinar that will supercharge your social media skills before the big week.

In this Webinar, you will learn to:

  • Think about new aspects of social media, including geo-location and crowd sourcing techniques available through services like Foursquare and Facebook Places. 
  • Use new concepts like “virtual check-ins” to drive more people to your brand, show or product.
  • Implement a strategy that ensures you are using all these platforms to their full potential--and maximizing your investment
  • Translate social media interactions into lasting customer relationships.

Attend from your desktop or conference room. Invite your whole team to attend at one low price of $329 per location. Each registration comes with access to the archived version of the program and the materials for 1-year.

Each registration comes with access to the archived version of the program, the materials provided by the speakers and a personalized certificate of completion for attending the Webinar.

How does the Webinar work?

The live audio is delivered to your location over the telephone or your computer speakers. The Power-Point presentations are presented over the Internet and are available to print out before the program. This is like a talk-radio program with visuals on the Web. You and your team will be able to have a live Q&A with all the speakers.

You need Real Player or Windows Media Player installed on your computer. If you do not have either, please follow the instructions below to download and install them. Or if you prefer, a phone for the audio and an Internet connection to let you watch the slides and other information on the Web will suffice. No other downloads or special hardware - a dial-up connection will work fine.

  • One (1) set of materials (you may make copies for all of the persons you invited to listen to the program);
  • One (1) toll-free connection to the seminar (if you select the audio connection.), and
  • One (1) Internet connection to the seminar.

Use speakers on your computer or speakerphone on your telephone and invite your entire staff to attend for one low price of $329.00 USD per site.

  • Operating system: Windows 95, 98, NT, 2000, XP
  • Browser: For optimal viewing experience, we recommend using Internet Explorer 6.0 or higher. However, any version of IE 4.0 or higher will work. For Netscape, only versions 4.x are supported at this time.

  • Display set at 1024 x 768 or 800 x 600
