Measuring and Monitoring Social Media – two of the most important challenges we all face today.

Fortunately there are best practices emerging for doing just that and Influence People has brought major sponsors, brands and speakers together at their Monitoring Social Media events including the  November 4th New York full day conference followed on November 5th by a half day “how-to” training event.

Mark Schmulen from Constant Contact is speaking on Social Media Monitoring for Small Business. While best known for their email marketing solutions, Constant Contact has serious Social Media Marketing Solutions and will be sharing their insights into Social Media best practices in their blog and at this event.

Brandwatch Social Media Monitoring is another major sponsor. They offer an online application that sends users summaries of what is being said online about their people, products and services.

Another lead sponsor is Synthesio, an international, multi-lingual web monitoring and research company helping brands and agencies find, collect, and make sense of the overwhelming data on the web.

The conference will be fully interactive with presentations from nine speakers including representations from our other sponsors including Radian6, Glide Technologies, and Compete.

There will also be an Exhibition Area including many of the leading social media monitoring and measurement tools and services plus formal presentations including panel discussions, case studies and Q & A sessions.
