Community Hoots

Fresh off the heels of our Social Analytics release, and our latest Mobile Updates, we’ve put together a special edition Info Sheet focusing on Community Building and the value it can provide your organization. We developed this Info Sheet to provide tips and talking points to share with members of your organization to ensure they understand the importance of participating in the social web.

Build your community, avoid negative publicity, monitor what competitors are doing, gain audience insights, and more – this Info Sheet covers the many reasons and ways your organization can engage in social media.

This is another in a series of Info Sheets focused on Advanced and Special Topics. Be sure to check out past editions on Working with URLs, and Working with Teams – you can also expect some new ones covering topics such as Geo, Influence, RSS, Listening, and more!
