I am sorry for the length of this post, but please read to the end.  

Dana and I have been talking about holding a social media seminar Friday evening before the NFBI Board meeting.  We would not plan to teach people how to do social media, however, we might assign one to one mentoring for that purpose afterward if some are interested.  

What we would do is try to plan how to cover as much social media as possible for the NFBI.  We are doing much better than a year ago.  More people are on and are learning how and what to do.  Now some coordination could help.  

 

If you could be here in time and would like to participate, please let me know.  You can certainly contact Dana, but her primary emphasis will be the board meeting.  So she wil pass to me information from those who wish to participate.  If you cannot come to Boise, we will do our best to include you by conference phone.  

 

If you have suggestions about things to be included that I might not think of, please bring them on, also.  My thought was to take 20 to 30 minutes on several different media: facebook, twitter, youtube at least.  

 

Although we want to make any of this stuff available to the Website, this is not the Website committee. I hope both Kevin and Katie can come.  They can be helpful, but Kevin has plenty to do with the Website.  One of our goals can be to offer interaction with our Website. 

I also hope you can be present, Sean.    You have  been working on this, and
we appreciate what you have done. You can tell us what is helpful in interacting with the traditional media like tv, newspaper, and radio. Is
that the right term?     

 

It seems to me that We just have to find ways of making our internet presence bigger and better.  It is a huge job, and we don't want blind people to lag behind. Some businesses do not even have listings in the phone book any more, just online.  I do not propose this for us (definitely not!) but it is sending us a signal. 

If you know someone who might be interested and is not on this list, please pass on the information and have them let me know what their experience is with social media.  

 

Thank you.    

Ramona
