Putting the Social Back into Social Media

With mobile devices in hand, the average person scrolls their news feeds roughly 72 feet per day and consumes upward of 5.7 words per second. As a ministry, how can we stand out amidst so much information? A part of the solution can be found in putting the social back into social media. Join Gunnar Simonsen in this workshop to basics and discuss what people really want and how you can stand out in the crowd. We can always discuss how to use social media, but do we remember why we are using social media?

This was one of the workshops at the Connect PDX Conference in Portland, Oregon in September 2019.
