Social Media in Travel: volunteers required..

I am very much looking forward to speaking at the Sales & Marketing in Travel European Summit in Prague next month ( details ).

I am going to be talking about how travel organisations can realise value from Corporate Social Networks. Specifically we’re going to look at how you can  develop a social media strategy, and part of that is going to include building an active listening plan.

As per our post to the Social Media In Travel LinkedIn discussion group, we’re looking for a couple of volunteer organisations actually whose brand / profile / market place we can look at live ( a bit like this example ) during the event.

Anyone like to volunteer their company or specfic idea / market?  Comment us below if you’re interested.  See you in Prague.

  • Hey Paul, Laurel Papworth (@silkcharm) gave a presentation (http://bit.ly/kwIrW) at Marketing Now where she recalled from her vast experience in managing online communities that 1 in 5 members of an online community will inevitably meet up offline...and her prediction for the travel industry (despite the fact she claims she's no good as a futurist) is that Social Network Travel will be the next big thing so there'll be: Group, Personal, Corporate and Social Network Travel - the Fanatics (http://www.thefanatics.com/) being a perfect example.
