BACKGROUND

 

Social media is now the #1 activity on the web. When most people think about the advantages of using social media for business, they immediately think of the marketing benefits. However, many businesses are starting to use social media as a platform and tool for listening to the voice of the stakeholders and providing customer service.

 

When a crisis or emergency erupts, the power of social media can be an amazing tool for businesses. A crisis can include anything from a simple website outage to product recalls or negative publicity that’s spread through word-of-mouth. This workshop will reveal how to use social media during a crisis and provide various case studies, including those from Singapore and overseas, so that participants can learn from real life examples.
