A party is not a party without Social Media, right? YES! How will you plan your social party (online and offline) on June 30, 2013?
I know, I know everyday is a Social Media Day party -for me, for you and for millions (or should I say billions) of people and business’ around the world. But, when there is a Proclamation dedicated special to social media- I’m psyched, excited and want to be in the know.
A few weeks ago I wrote a post about this same subject and as the official date get’s closer and closer it prompted to me to do some research about how Social Media Day 2013 is being celebrated, cultivated and flat out used as a promotional vehicle for business.
