Comet Branding Radio: The Social Media Club, what it's doing and how it can help you.

July 21st, 2009 | By Al Krueger | Posted In: Radio Free Comet

On Wednesday, July 22nd at 11a Central, Sara and Al will be chatting with one of the founders of the Social Media Club, Chris Heuer. We will be talking about what the SMC is and what it’s doing and how the SMC uses chapters to engage on a local level. This topic is now relevant to Milwaukee as Social Media Club of Milwaukee is being launched. Please tune in.

chris_heuerWe have been following the SMC for some time and have been keenly interested in it. As we are all aware, social media is here to stay and is having, and will continue to have, a significant impact on how businesses operate and proliferate.

Over the last year, Milwaukee has become a hotbed of sorts for social media types, activities, Social Media Conferences (such as Social Media University Milwaukee – check it out) and Tweetups of many shapes, purposes and sizes with some being free and some, not free.

Last week there was even a Margaritweetup, which apparently was quite a bit of fun judging from the live- and post-tweeting that ensued.

According to their website, the Social Media Club brings together journalists, publishers, communications professionals, artists, amateur media creators, citizen journalists, teachers, students, tool makers, and other interested collaboraters. Essentially the people who create and consume media who have an interest in seeing the ‘media industry’ evolve for everyone’s benefit. We are more than just USERS, we are the reason the tools exist – we are the people who communicate our thoughts and ideas near and far. Join us and let’s shape the future together!

Sounds pretty sweet if you ask us.

Please tune in.

    Sorry you guys missed the Margatweetup. It actually was pretty impromptu…the organizers started planning it only a few days before it happened. But the fact that there were still nearly 30 people there demonstrates the power of SM.
