According to a survey conducted last month by the American Marketing Association (AMA), nearly one-fifth of all U.S.-based marketing dollars will be budgeted to Social Media Marketing strategies and promotions within the next five (5) years. This impressive projected percentage of total domestic advertising is significantly greater than the 13% spent on social media efforts in 2009.
Next Monday, 03.29.2010, EngineWorks will be attending the day-long Social Fresh Portland conference at the DoubleTree Hotel here in Portland, Oregon. Lead by our Social Media Performance Specialist, Eric King, our team will be present at panel sessions throughout the day in order to glean advanced insight into the latest and greatest Social Media Marketing strategies.
