My new life in Social Media
The new year has already proven to be one of immense change and fantastic opportunities. On New Year's Eve I was offered (and shortly thereafter accepted) a position with Maggie Fox's Social Media Group. Having worked with Maggie and her team in the months preceding the offer, I knew it was an opportunity to join one of the best and brightest social media teams around.
I'm proud to have been a part of the development of SMG's social media press releases for Ford and I look forward to working more closely with the folks at Ford on their SMPRs and other social media initiatives. My new position with SMG, you see, is to be the on-site strategist for the Ford account. I'll be "embedded" within Ford's global communications team at Ford Motor Company's world headquarters in Dearborn, Michigan where I'll be responsible for ensuring that their SMG-directed social media strategy is executed smoothly.
Preparations are underway to transition me to my desk in Dearborn and I'm eagerly awaiting the chance to get to work. Stay tuned. ;)
