This was a short presentation to a large group of Senior Executives as food for thought. I believe large companies are losing ground by ignoring social media or thinking it isn't relevant to their business. I also believe every business - regardless how big or small - must be present on social media, the question is "how?"

Every business must reflect on their industry, their market, their stakeholders and develop a strategy that gives them a voice and a means of joining the online conversation.

If you'd like to discuss strategy or need a presentation or commentator at your functions - let's talk. [email protected]
