Tweet, Tweet, Tweet… Is there room for the Social Web in your enterprise?
Ever since the Web 2.0 explosion, the social aspects of the web have erupted into a hype-fest that literally seems to have no end. You can’t turn on the radio, TV, logon, or have a conversation without hearing about Twitter, Facebook, or LinkedIn. People are spending so much time using these social tools and for what? In general, we could assume that the obvious answer is for fun, friendship, and staying in touch. However, that doesn’t explain all the businesses that are jumping on the bandwagon. What is the point of utilizing social in the enterprise? What do you even call that? Do companies really want their employees to spend their time browsing forums, writing endless blogs post, or tweeting that they just got back from the water cooler?
At this month Softec meeting Justin Couto, the CEO of Couto Solutions, will weed through the hype and show you that you can actually monetarily take advantage of the social web. Get the answers to the question above and learn about some of the tools available to help you streamline your social efforts.
By attending this event, you can expect to learn how:
· Organizations are social conversation platforms around their products and services
· Twitter can help you find clients that are already looking for you
· To use tools such as Outlook and TweetDeck to streamline your tweet process
· Softec will soon become dramatically more social outside the context of our meetings
At the end of his talk, Justin would love to open the floor to a few members that would like to share their success stories on how they have utilized the social web to benefit their bottom line. In order to be one of the few please contact Justin on twitter (@JustinCouto) to submit your story. He will have time for at least 2-3, so in the spirit of the web please share.
