Attending the WWD Magic Tradeshow was a blast. Not only did I sit on a panel with five incredibly talented and passionate women, each of whom brought a unique perspective and tangible results to share, but I was also able to get a better insight into the typical challenges and questions arising from the fashion industry about social media, it’s influence and power to build community, enhance brand loyalty and drive sales.
It’s never fun watching yourself on video (reminder to self: glasses off next time!), but I wanted to share our panel presentation, which aimed to move beyond the basic Twitter and Facebook “how-to” and into true social media integration across multiple internal departments (marketing, PR, customer service) and geo-location. For a “real world” example of this, skip to Carolyn Coles, Head of Digital Culture & Innovation for Lululemon, amazing stuff.

What do you think? Are these similar to the conversations you are bringing to the table?

Great to see that there is an understanding that Social Media goes beyond your basic function of facebook and twitter and there is a deeper integration. Social Media is a powerful tool, you just need to know how to leverage it’s power to your brand advantage!
So glad I found your website! I really enjoyed watching those videos and as I work with many of the fashion bloggers you mentioned, I wish I had been in attendance at the conference. Would love the change to discuss these issues with you further Crosby!
