AHHH. So basically, I am writing this an hour after I have been made aware of my nomination for the 2016 Charleston Social Media Day – Excellence in Social Media Award. It is truly a great honor and I am so excited to a part of the conference and the award ceremony! So what is the Charleston Social Media Day? Find out below and help me by following the 4 steps below to VOTE for me!
The Charleston Social Media Day will take place on June 30th and is a celebration of social media platforms and their use in the promotion of Charleston as a tech-forward city. This year, the event will include an educational panel, with local experts discussing two important topics: “Crisis Communications: a panel discussion on how to handle social media during times of crisis using proper messaging and avoiding mishaps,” and “#SquadGoals: a panel discussion on how to work with your social media community, bloggers + online influencers.” To celebrate Social Media Day, our local social media community is promoting the use of the hashtag #chsyou starting today through June 30. This is a chance for locals to show what Charleston means to them by submitting pictures to social platforms with the hashtag #chsyou.
In keeping with tradition, Social Media Awards presented by Charleston City Paper will be given out during the cocktail celebration. So, how can you help me?
