Social Media Jungle: Boston will
address how social media is changing the way we work and live. A
full day of program sessions includes discussions about social
media from both a personal perspective and business perspective.
Delegates attending Social Media Jungle:Boston will get a candid
look at how companies can motivate consumers through social media
to drive product sales without increasing costs.
The Social Media Jungle events,
produced by Jeff Pulver, bring together people with diverse
backgrounds. The one thing many of the delegates have in common
is their passion for social media and a desire to better
understand how to leverage social media in their business and in
some cases on a personal basis. Attending delegates in the past
have included executives responsible for: Marketing,
Advertising, PR, Strategy, Operations, as well as company presidents
and CXOs.
This one day summit has unique format which Jeff has developed
based on his 13+ years experience producing events and conferences.
At Social Media Jungle, there are no “speakers” but
rather Discussion Leaders. The discussion leaders have been told the
event will be a “Powerpoint Free Zone.” These pretty
amazing people were not invited to talk about their company,
product, service or application, but rather the topic in the area
of Social Media which they were the most passionate about. And
from the proposals received, Jeff acted as the
“editor” and put together what he believes to be a
great event.
At Social Media Jungle, our discussion leaders will be
presenting their talk as if they were sharing a blog post. And the
people in the room will be asked to provide immediate comments to
the content being shared which in turn will start a conversation.
In other words, our event will be filled with an engaged audience
and a group of people who will have a great opportunity to explore
a variety of related topics inside of the social media space.
