On Thursday evening, February 18, 2010, Bethany Davidson, Marketing Consultant for Magic Logix, attended the Social Media Club of Dallas event. The event took place at the Moroch building down town off N. Hall Street. Zoës Kitchen, the catering sponsor, provided a wonderful meal for the event.

The introductions speaker, Jessica Nunez, did a great job announcing upcoming events, giving recognition to sponsors, and introducing the featured speaker, Aaron Strout. Aaron Strout, the CMO of Powered, a full-services social media agency, spoke about businesses tapping into social media platforms and effective strategies to implement. Aaron discussed with social media, how businesses need to focus less on sales pitches and advertising and more on community and conversation.

Social Media is a way to engage in great conversation with your previous clients, current clients, and potential customers. This was an awesome event where corporate marketers, professional consultants, agencies, and business owners came together representing some of the top businesses in Dallas. The Social Media Club is a wonderful networking group that promotes media literacy, standard technology, and strong ethical behavior. The SMC encourages businesses to share innovative ideas for measuring and improving social media tactics. For more information about the Social Media Club of Dallas visit www.smcdallas.org. We hope to see you at the next event!!
