    Free White Paper: The Art of Developing and Telling Your Company’s Story

    Quite often when speaking to a prospective client, the first question I get is: “…so do you have the right connections in the media to get us coverage?” 

    Are we connected?

    Does our team have “good connections?”  Sure.  That’s the easy part of what we do. 

    The Message.  The Story.  It’s The Hardest Part.

    How Social Media Can Help Humanize Your Company (And Much More)

    Picture_5 Today, I gave a presentation InnoTech in San Antonio, entitled, Strategies for Leveraging Social Media & Web 2.0 Technologies.  I joined Giovanni Galucci, who lead the discussion.  You can read more about today's event in today's story in our local paper, the San Antonio Express News.

    I focused on the notion that Social Media can help humanize your company.  By that, I mean it can put a real voice, a real face, and if you will - some personality on your company and your brand.

    I also demonstrated how, through my this blog, and my other, 3Screens.net can really impact organic search results.
