Nice job on this article. Seriously! It's amazing how fast technology is changing recruiting. I am tracking this at the team level on my site, but am fascinated by your take at the player level. Really cool.

Chris - I ended up incorporating Disqus instead. It has more power anyway. :)

The logo looks great I must say. It's kind of classical and the colors just compliment each other perfectly.

Yup. The KFBS (UNC) gig is just me and Marc as the guests in Professor Bill Putsis' marketing class. It's the eMBA program that I'm about to graduate from. Giving back already! Ha ha. Love to hear that NCSU is doing an entire course on SM. I shared that with the UNC folks. A little kick in the tail if you will.

I'd love to hear how yours turns out. Maybe some future collaboration? FYI: Katie used to be an intern at Bronto (when I was there) back in the day...

DJ - It's actually a semester long course. Claudia and I led a similar summer workshop and it was well received. Is the gig at UNC a one day course?

Love it! Great lineup. Kinda jealous.

When is this deal going down?

@marcaross and I (@djwaldow) are working on a similar gig at Kenan-Flagler Business School (UNC-CH) on September 17th.

An even better way to use Alltop, after you create your own page, is to get the feed into Google Reader, and there to use the Postrank Greasemonkey script and filter the feed.

I think strategy is important as getting sites up and running is just first step. Strategy to manage, communicate and sustain relationships involves a long term strategy with short term tactics. Let me know if I can help out as you get more info.

Re: Social Media Practitioners: Your help is needed!

Camden Watts — Fri, 26 Jun 2009 14:06:01 -0000

What a great start you have already! I'm happy to help out where most appropriate. Here are some thoughts:

- Visual Communications
Do you have an avatar that works for you? How do you know? Tips on working with designers, photographers, etc. to make sure you're speaking the message you'd hoped.

- The Bigger Picture
It's not just about the social media tools, but the interactions, education, empowerment and results that those tools enable (use Seth Godin's Tribes and blog as a resource).

- Human Nature
Altruism, self-policing, and organic growth in relation to online communities and engagement.

The course sounds exciting. I'm in Raleigh and can help when/if needed!

jeffreylcohen — Fri, 26 Jun 2009 13:56:34 -0000

Chris:

Two things I would add:

1. Social media is new way to connect with, and communicate with, your customers or constituents. It is not a strategy, but a set of continually changing tools that work in conjunction with your current marketing strategy. It does not replace marketing, it enhances it and allows you to engage with your customers.

2. One effective approach to social media is to build a community of engaged and active participants around your business or organization. The success of Triangle Tweetup is an example of this.

Since I am based in the Triangle, I would be happy to speak to the class on either of these topics.

Awesome Andy! We'll definitely want to set that up. I'll be in touch with you. Could even be a husband/wife presentation. :)
