Join social media professional, Zuri Allen Star, in an interactive workshop about social tribe building using the social media platforms Twitter, Facebook and Instagram.
We’ll review branding strategies, discuss what works on all platforms and how each platform is different and important. The bulk of the discussion will be on building unstoppable tribes of social users around you or your client’s brand! Not familiar with social “tribes”? Seth Godin explains it best:
“A tribe is a group of people connected to one another, connected to a leader, and connected to an idea. For millions of years, human beings have been part of one tribe or another. A group needs only two things to be a tribe: a shared interest and a way to communicate.” ― Seth Godin
In the session we’ll take a hands on approach and build our own tribe! Zuri will lead the “Shiftcon tribe” in an exercise that each attendee can apply to their own brands and clients.
