By Merrill Knox 

Tomorrow marks the launch of Mediabistro’s Social Media Marketing Boot Camp, an interactive online event and workshop. Over eight weeks, you’ll hear from keynote speakers, attend practical how-to sessions, and undertake strategic assignments to provide dynamic training on social media.

By the end of the program, you will create an integrated strategic plan, using various social media platforms, to build an engaged audience and convert traffic into sales. This year we are also launching an industry track dedicated to entertainment and social TV. There’s still time to sign up, so register here.
