Dear Colleague,
TMC’s Social CRM Expo is right around the corner! A lot of exciting programs have recently been added to the conference. I am excited to share this amazing program and event that the TMC team has created, which is focused on empowering you to instantly engage customers using today’s most popular social communications tools.
The Social CRM Expo is the first event that concentrates on monitoring Social Media in real time — enabling you to practice “Social CRM”. Social CRM is fast becoming a vital means by which customers are engaging with companies, making Social CRM Expo the premier event where you will gain in-depth knowledge on effective use of this pertinent means of communication.
Social CRM has evolved rapidly from personal interaction tools to a vital business channel. Social media is the electronic, global equivalent of a traditional open marketplace. Here, customers praise, offer suggestions, or criticize vendors with others listening and adding their supporting thoughts — or even coming to the defense of the merchants — all in real time.
Never has public opinion be more accessible. The conference program focuses on how to understand and harness Social CRM and use it to increase your business’ bottom line.
Here’s a quick look at the details. Be sure to use the show website as your complete resource for descriptions, schedules, etc. My best recommendation is to visit the website and view the conference program right now, so you can read over and begin to plan your agenda.
Come Build Your Business
During the show, the networking and educational opportunities are literally endless. Come join thousands of people from
within the telecom industry who gather with enterprises, SMBs and other end users to build their businesses.
Educational Sessions and Workshops to Cover Every Hot Topic
By attending Social CRM Expo, you gain access to in-depth conference programming that will
prepare you for making the most educated decisions for your company and organization, and focuses on real-time issues.
In order to help you navigate this new and exciting world of Social CRM- a conference program has been created with key objectives to focus on:
• How and why the social channel is empowering customers to affect companies' branding and business.
• How your organization can utilize and adapt to this changing customer behavior to benefit your bottom line.
• How to connect the strings of comments, issues, complaints and suggestions from social media to other traditional channels, so that your contact center can engage with your customers on their terms, achieving a unified view of them.
I have also noted my top choices for the session programming. They provide an in-depth look at what Social CRM can do for you and your company. (**Editor's Choice)
