This has been a busy week with a speaking engagement at Salisbury Big Business Event. I would like to thank everyone involved for making it a great event and I really enjoyed meeting a wide range of business people, exhibitors and other speakers.
Karren Brady, an eminent British business woman and Deputy Chairman of West Ham Football club gave a very inspiring keynote on her experience as a woman in the business of Football.
In case you were unable to make the event, I would like to share with you my thoughts about Social Media Strategy and how to use Social Media Marketing to really engage with your customers.
My talk was entitled “How NOT to be the next Comet – Marketing in the Connected Economy“. Comet was an electrical retail business in the UK which lost its connection with its customers and went bust. It metamorphosed from being a retailer to being a high street show room for Amazon.
I have made a 12 minute video, embedded below, in which I have covered all the main points from my Presentation and below this you can download the slides which are on Slidedeck.
The full slide deck can be downloaded from Slideshare and is provided for you below.
