The competitive landscape for marketing in Hawaii has changed. Recognizing this, attendees from a broad spectrum of industries in Hawaii came to the Hawaii Social Media Summit to learn more about social media marketing.
The beautiful open-air Hawaii Convention Center made a lovely backdrop to the aloha spirit at the conference.
My presentation was aimed at business owners considering a transition from traditional marketing to holistic marketing integrated with social media. A big mahalo to the attendees for your kind comments.

Neenz Faleafine made an excellent presentation on community engagement.

I don’t have a video of Neenz’s actual presentation but I interviewed her in September to get her four C’S of community engagement.
It was good to see Mari Smith again.
