Boston’s Social Media Breakfast 10 will be held on Wednesday, November 12, from 8:00am -11:00am, at the Ryles Jazz Club in Inman Square, Cambridge.
SMB10 Theme: Getting ROI Out of Social Media
SMB10 will feature three, eight-minute presentations on examining new ways to evaluate and measure the success of social media engagements and community building programs.
The hard line ROI analysis that have traditionally been used in Marketing – sales leads, conversion rates and reach metrics - don’t easily translate to social media engagement driven programs - where you’re no longer buying your way into the conversation to influence potential customers.
Today’s visionary companies are engaging their customers directly – realistically, authentically and transparently - sharing ideas, spurring conversations, responding to industry trends and developing valuable digital content that helps propel their brand as an engaged trusted source. This strategy can also dramatically improve SEO rankings and inbound marketing efforts leading to great findability and sales opportunities.
The Presenters
Brian Halligan, Founder and CEO at HubSpot
Andrew McAfee, Associate Professor with Harvard Business School
Matt Cutler, Vice President, Marketing & Analytics at Visible Measures
