    5 Reasons Why Your Social Media Strategy Isn't a Strategy

    Windmill Networking Blog

    Neal Schaffer challenges readers in a recent blog post on whether they really have a social media strategy or whether it’s a random mix of activities?

    Do you have a social media strategy? Is it written down? Is it integrated into your member acquisition plan?

    Have you benchmarked your social media strategy against what other chairs are doing?

    A couple of weeks ago, Sheri Davison, in the LinkedIn Discussion Group for Chairs on Leveraging Social Media, put forth the idea of Vistage Chairs sharing with each other what was working and not working in using social media to find, attract, and engage with potential members.

    Jump into the discussion and post your thoughts.

    • What are concerns/fears of using social media and networking to find members?
