This week's topics: Volunteer Opportunities - Get Involved!
C4C Auction - Last minute dash **************************************************************************************************** Volunteer Opportunities - Get Involved! Thanks to the efforts of Craig Wiley ('09), we are kicking off a new initiative to match people with meaningful opportunities to contribute their time and talent to the Foster MBA community. We have developed a process whereby MBAA Council, Clubs, and individuals can submit volunteer and help out ads to solicit assistance for their respective projects, events, or just need an extra pair of hands or muscles. In using the MBAA Council Newsletter as the medium, we will periodically announce of these volunteer opportunities. We are kicking with two volunteer opportunities. 1) Group: marketing club / entrepreneurship network, joint event Date or Range of Dates: last week in Feb.
Time (if a specific time): 6 - 7
How Long Will it Take: 1 hour
Special Skills Needed: coordination help: parking passes, gifts, Leveraging Social Media as Part of a Marketing Campaign –
Blogs, Facebook, MySpace, YouTube, Digg and hundreds of other new marketing mediums have become important pieces of the Marketing Puzzle. College students today know these sites as places they visit themselves. But as they move into Marketing departments or start their own businesses, they need to know how to use them for marketing gain.
There are many ways to leverage these in ways that create successful viral campaigns with positive ROI's, and plenty of ways to create disasters that cost companies time and money. This group can speak to how corporations, small businesses and agencies are adapting to the Social Media component of the Marketing ecosystem.Proposed Speakers:
Spring Creek Group, www.springcreekgroup.com an online agency specializing in Social Media (Andy Boyer or Clay McDaniel)
And Mpire.com, maker of Widgetbucks, an ad revenue unit for blogs and web sites that want to generate income (CEO or VP of Marketing)
