Lisa Anderson, president of LMA consulting Group, will lead attendees through an online webinar “Leverage Social Networks to Drive Business Results” on Wednesday, November 13 at 11 a.m. PT, to help businesses and manufacturers get a better understanding of how to use social media to build customer-centric networks and engage their supply chain. Based on her book, Leverage Social Networks to Drive Business Success,” Anderson shares the key social media platforms that have the greatest return on investment and have the least barrier to learning for new users.
“I see so much potential for manufacturers to use social media to communicate with their customers, suppliers and employees,” explains Anderson. “Never before have we had such real-time, collaborative communications which are essential in effectively managing your global supply chain.”
Capitalizing on the principles from her book, Anderson will quickly bring newbies up-to-speed on the benefits of many of the more popular social media platforms. Whether building a company or personal brand, social media is an excellent way to engage an audience and create a dialog on a variety of topics.
“Companies quickly learn which networks work best of their businesses and can gauge an ROI from their activity,” says Anderson. “I think companies who embrace this new normal form of business communications can leap frog the competition and take market share.”
