Spreenkler’s Steve Glynn Keynote At SOHO Social Media Conference

Today I will keynote at The Push and The Pull – A One Day Social Media Strategy Conference by SOHO Publishing and SOHOBizTube.com. My presentation will focus on the secrets of how social media was used to create a competitive advantage in the Revolutionary War. Amazing, I know, that this had gone under reported for so long!

In addition to the speaker lineup, the event provides attendees with SOHO’s Exclusive Social Media Marketing Strategy Workbook, The Draft. So, if you attend you’ll leave with a complete strategy document you can apply immediately.

Spreenkler Quietly Pushing New Ideas, For Now.

Earlier this year someone asked why I post my ideas to Twitter, Scribd and other places around the web. She said, “you’re giving away your secrets!” I laughed and made light of it.

But she was right. Over the past 12 years in marketing, design and technology I’ve developed a unique perspective on how applications create mass efficiencies and knowledge sharing in organizations. With the continuing emergence of social platforms like the ones mentioned above, there is enormous opportunity for people with this expertise.

Spreenkler is working several innovative concepts (example). I think some will be transformative to organizations and communities. We’ll see. More to come on Twitter. When we’re ready.

Spreenkler Human White Board Experiment

5 students
5 companies
13 weeks
50+ mentors
195 hours of skill training
1,300 hours of practice
1 question: How will social technology impact brand and consumer engagement?

What?! This summer Spreenkler will hire 5 students for the first Human White Board Experiment. Students will spend 13 weeks applying market research, social media and consumer behavior to 5 real companies. We will create real concepts to help these companies better understand how, where and when they can leverage social technology.

Help! We’re looking for design, marketing, advertising, social media, PR, and IT mentors. In 45-60 minutes, describe what you know, what you do and where you do it. Then offer tips for students in launching their career.

If interested, contact me: 262-353-6562 or steve@spreenkler.com.
