Using Social Media for Competitive and Company Research

Traditional tools for competitive and company information can be complemented by the effective use of social media sources, such as blogs, user reviews, Twitter feeds and social networking groups. This hands-on workshop will help you to think differently about these tools as competitive and company information sources and will help you mine these sources effectively.

"Social crash course" workshops are also available for specific tools, such as Google +, blogs, Twitter, Facebook, and LinkedIn. See more examples on SlideShare.
