Laconia, NH, May 23, 2009 --(PR.com)-- In recognition of the growing importance of social media marketing to the success of businesses large and small, the NH Division of Economic Development, in coordination with social marketing and success strategies firm Epiphanies, Inc., Public Service of New Hampshire (PSNH), and the “Stay, Work & Play” initiative, will host the first annual "A-Ha!" NH Social Media Business Summit at PSNH, 780 North Commercial Street, Manchester, on Monday, June 15th from 9:00 a.m.-3:30 p.m.
The event, which is sponsored by PSNH and geared towards entrepreneurs, marketing professionals, business owners, and companies of all sizes and industries, is designed to support the Division's broader mission: To retain and help expand existing New Hampshire businesses, and to attract new companies to the income-tax-free state.
"Social marketing isn’t just a buzzword or a fad. It’s the way that more and more savvy business professionals are choosing to communicate," says Steve Boucher, Communications & Legislative Director for the NH Division of Economic Development. "If you’ve never tweeted or posted a photo of your new product on your Facebook account, you’re missing a valuable, low cost marketing opportunity."
Sessions for the event include:
