Grab a CR Code Tradeshow Marketing Guide

After the #socialmedia #tradeshow #marketing #checklist went over so well last week, I put together another (hopefully) helpful marketing guide. This one is all about making your QR Code marketing come alive. It's a freebie download, so grab it now.  

Creating a Social Media Editorial Calendar
In my communications with companies that spend a good amount of time 'doing' social media, it's easy to see that most of the engagement is random, catch-as-catch-can; sporadic. There's no rhyme or reason to it. Read more here...

#Socialmedia #tradeshow #marketing #checklist The more I write about using social media to promote tradeshow appearances and events, the more it became obvious (hand to forehead - ba-bing!) that there should be some sort of checklist out there.
