Description

Cox Business and Grandin CoLab have partnered to bring veteran social marketer and brand evangelist Ted Rubin to Roanoke. At this FREE event, attendees will learn how to exercise their connections for business success and build greater intimacy with their customers while profiting from ROR: Return on Relationship™. The event will also feature an expert panel of local business owners sharing their perspectives making connections both online and offline to grow your business.

In a Nielson report from 2011 on the State of Social Media, it suggests that a smart, targeted online presence for businesses is critical to success. Why? Americans spend three times as much time on social media as on email; more people follow brands than celebrities; and well over half of users write reviews of products and services online. A telling story for businesses and a wake-up call for many.
Expert panel of business owners (moderated by Ted Rubin) includes:

Pennie Ahuero, Viva La Cupcake

Larry Davidson, Davidson's Clothing for Men

Elda Stanco Downey, Roanoke Spanish

Sherman Lea, Jr., New Hope Support Services
