Learning About Social Media

Hello Everyone:
It seems just yesterday the only thing that buzzed in the office was the telepone, fax machine and coffee pot!  These days not only are those items still standard office main stays many more more things are buzzing and have been added to our way of communicating with peers and clients, and it has a name: Social Media. 
 
Ok I know what many of the communication and marketing tools are - from twitter to blogs to podcasts to linkedin to facebook to videos the list goes one ~ the question I'm asking myself now is: What's our strategy as a company and how can we best serve our members and ALL professional women that need resources and connections....through Social Media!
 
So we have embarked on three things:
1) Reading ~ Currently reading Dave Evans' book "Social Meida Marketing an Hour a Day" recommended to me by one of our EWN Social Media and Technology experts!
2) Meeting with many wonderful "Social Media" experts and developing a concept and plan for our company to move forward.
3) Moving forward - so we are not left behind in this revolutionary way we market and communicate in the 21st Century.
 
Here's what I have learned - everyone is talking.....whether good or bad or indifferenct - so we all need to start ~ everyone has opinions - and so do you now it's time to add your feedback ~ and with Social Media instant feedback and you, your company and your services becomes an even more valuable marketing tool!
 
Stay tuned.....the journey never ends and enjoying the ride along the way makes everything seem worthwhile.  Georgia Dudley, Founder, Empowering Women Network, Inc.
