Leveraging Social Media for Marketing and Customer Experience: Topic of MCorp Presentation at NACS 2012

MCorp executive Richard Diamond to speak at National Association of Consumer Shows Annual Conference.

San Francisco, CA, May 17, 2012 --(PR.com)-- Richard Diamond, Business Development Director at customer experience consultancy MCorp Consulting, has been asked to present a Power Session at NACS 2012 for executives and senior managers interested in leveraging social media in a world where customers are smarter, more empowered and harder to connect with.

According to Mr. Diamond, “The customer experience journey – from boosting awareness and getting customers, to driving positive word-of-mouth – can be significantly enhanced using social media in ways that strategically integrate and effectively address both business and customer needs.”

Mr. Diamond’s presentation, “Marketing Shows with Social Media,” will be presented today at the NACS 2012 conference in Las Vegas, Nevada. Coinciding with Facebook’s targeted IPO date, Mr. Diamond’s talk will focus on the increasingly critical role social media – including Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and others –plays at every step of the relationship lifecycle as customers discover, evaluate, engage with and choose products and services.

Mr. Diamond adds, “While social media is a significant and important channel for consumer shows, most promotional campaigns are undertaken without clearly defined goals for using social media, much less a cohesive understanding of its potential impact on consumers and businesses. There are myriad opportunities to effectively integrate social media into the customer relationship lifecycle and the customer journey.”

Concluding his comments, Mr. Diamond states, “A highly effective way for firms to identify these gaps and close disconnects is through Social Touchpoint Mapping®, applying MCorp’s proprietary customer experience methodology -- Touchpoint Mapping – to social touchpoints, recognizing where companies can improve, and identifying how to drive positive ROI on social media in business.”

In his presentation, Mr. Diamond will discuss ways consumer show executives and producers can align social media activities with customer experience strategy to boost awareness, enhance reputation and drive measurable business results.

The NACS Annual Convention runs from May 16th through the 17th, and offers an opportunity for consumer show professionals throughout North America to learn the latest marketing strategies and best practices to help them manage and grow their businesses.
