At Falcon Social, we believe advertising and content go hand in hand to drive business. We’ll take a look at some of the best practices for allowing content creation and social media advertising to work together, effectively. This keynote will cover: - The balance of advertising and content, and when and how to boost effectively to capture leads - Using custom targeting to avoid spamming your audience - How to build an audience with a rich content strategy Speaking about social media advertising in relation to content strategy will be Falcon Social’s May Laursen, Inbound Marketing Specialist, and Mary Liebowitz, Social Engagement Manager.
