Anyway, so this guy named Shashank Nigam, who writes the SimplFlying Blog, has set up a really cool forum for ideas. The process is known as a Twebinar. What is a Twebinar? Well in the words of Shashank: "What's a Twebinar? Not just your usual sit-back-and-listen format! In SimpliFlying's Twebinars, you will not have to wait until the end of the session to ask questions. You can join the discussion LIVE on Twitter using a hashtag (#SMairlines), where you can ask questions and get answers in real-time – from the speaker and all the participants, while the presentation is going on."
Anyway, the guy is starting off a Twebinar series with 3 different Twebinars:
-5.5 ways airlines can drive revenue through social media branding – April 28, 2010; 12 noon EDT
-Five critical steps for airlines to sell through Twitter successfully – May 27, 2010; 12 noon EDT
-Ten FREE social media tools successful airlines use for online brand engagement: June 24, 2010; 12 noon EDT
Why are these so awesome? Well a) It's a way for you to get your voice heard, and mingle with aviation professionals. b) Social media is critical for airlines to connect with their passengers.
Shashank is going to be the keynote speaker at all 3.
You can register here, and the cost for the three is around $600.
Be sure to get out and get your voice heard on April 28th!!!
The price for the 3 is 199$ not 600$! If you register at one Twebinar indivually its 79$ (USD)
when he talked about the prize giveaway he said a value of over $600
