Event Background

While social media’s importance in virtually every marketer’s toolkit is increasing with each passing day, success has been elusive. Indeed, in a recent survey of 395 marketers and ebusiness executives by Forrester, the group reported that Facebook “creates less business value than any other digital marketing opportunity”, and only 55% of companies that market on Twitter say they’re “satisfied” with the business value they achieve.

In many ways, these findings should come as no surprise. Given the meteoric growth of social media as a category in recent years, it’s no wonder that executives are struggling to keep up on this dynamic sector of digital marketing and find the key to unlocking the value of social media. Though, as social media becomes increasingly linked to overall corporate performance, many marketing and non-marketing executives find themselves tasked with defining the path to success — and quickly.

During this executive roundtable session, Chief Digital Officer will assemble a group of experienced marketing professionals to explore the topic of ‘Social Media Strategy’, and discuss the issues from an executive-level perspective. Attendees will learn best practices from recognized experts, and share tales with like-minded colleagues in an intimate, low–pressure setting.
