Learn how to attract media attention and gain coverage of your firm by using effective PR strategies with digital marketing and social media.
Also presenting will be Carroll Henning, Marketing Director for Woodworking Network.

"The home and building products industry is filled with innovative products and brands aimed at everyone from middle-class consumers in suburbia, to the influential and powerful movers and shakers of the architecture and design world," said Eden. "Some of these brands and products are about as niche as niche gets. And on top of that, marketers are tasked with executing social media strategies for companies and organizations that have extremely narrow and hard-to-reach audiences. What are the keys to making it all work?"
 
Eden said it takes a combination of experience, planning, strategy, and education.
