[Slides] Advanced Social Media Course from UCSC Ext. Silicon Valley

Have you been meaning to up your social media game?

This is your chance. You just missed my 2-day Advanced Social Media Class at UCSC Ext. Silicon Valley but you are in luck – I am sharing the slides from the course for free, right here.

While I don’t think that a slide deck can replace the experience of a two-day interactive class with professionals and students from Silicon Valley, the deck DOES give an overview of social media marketing strategy techniques and important trends in the space.


Think Digital Transformation and Code Halos.
