“If Content is King then Relationships are Queen.”

Relationships are the bedrock on which we build our social lives, both online and face to face. And whether online or face to face the rules for building relationships are the same: Connect, Listen, Engage, Grow. This breakout session will discuss how these rules apply to building powerful and authentic personal and business relationships that thrive in the “virtual” and “real” worlds and at the intersections where these worlds meet.

We’ll discuss practical steps and explore best practices for building and growing relationships using the most popular social media tools including Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook and Blogging.
