If you’re in Israel, don’t miss PR Newswire’s “Media Engagement on a Shoestring: Working with Media and Analysts” from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. Tuesday, May 5, at Rakefet Gallery Hall, Kfar Maccabiah, in Ramat Gan (Tel Aviv area for those outside Israel). You can register for this free seminar by e-mailing prnisrael@yahoo.com by close of business on Wednesday, April 29.

I’ll be presenting on how and why to use social media tools for marketing, as well as a case study of one company in Israel that has had great results in a business-to-business format.

PR Newswire invitation

The presenters look great! I hope to cover the basics of using social media for business:

• Corporate blogging: blog benefits, who should be blogging, what to post
• Twitter: benefits, how to use it, what makes Twitter different
• Web communities: user groups, forums, conditional knowledgebases – how to use them and what the potential benefits are
• All the rest: webinars, videos, newsletters and more

The amazing thing is that one Israeli company is already doing all of this and more – and they are doing it well. We’ll learn about their successes.

My hope is that all seminar attendees will go home with something they can implement, whether it’s one new idea or an entirely new strategy for marketing on the Web. There’s also a question and answer session after the presentations.

Look forward to seeing you there!
