Testimonials
What an interesting session! I thought it was well-tailored to our audience. In fact, one of the thoughts I had was there probably are quite a few people in learning and development who would find this to be the right kind of material at the right time.
The most useful things I learned today were:
- That you can maximize the YouTube description by including the site URL and call to action in it
- That you get more traction using Linkedin updates versus Pulse
- That Facebook business page updates don’t go to personal page followers and vice versa
General observations: Laura Benjamin Lollar moved early to the web and has done substantial work to understand how various social media channels can be used to communicate marketing, training and public service messages. She is a skilled presenter who has the knack of breaking down what could be an overwhelming topic and explaining what her audience needs to know in clear, compelling language.
