I‘ll be giving a webinar on social media press releases, along with Mark Budgell of Hewlett Packard, in a Bulldog Reporter/PR University event on Sept. 9.
Social Media Release Update: Use the Latest Templates, Tips and Inside Tricks to Boost Pick-Up will show participants how to create and write your own social media releases, the best and most practical SMR templates to use and which social media widgets to include.
In the 90-minute online presentation, we’ll also cover how to distribute social media releases and how to monitor and measure the reach of your new, supercharged press releases, resulting in greater reach and results among online influencers covering your brand, product or company.
If you use social media releases or can point to some interesting examples, please share them in the comments below — and let me know if I can use it in my presentation.
