YouTube and Your Brand (Video)
Posted by Mary Fletcher Jones
Should you be on YouTube? Should your company or nonprofit? Yes, and yes! YouTube is fabulous for search engine results and building trust.
In this excerpt from a social media presentation at RHED Pixel, I make the case for YouTube as a marketing tool (sorry, Richard!) and provide some practical tips.

Writing for engagement: tips and best practices (video presentation)
Posted by Mary Fletcher Jones
I had the opportunity to speak at the RHED Pixel annual Open House last week on best practices for effective social media updates, and wanted to share the video with you today.
I enjoy this event because the speakers are terrific, it’s informal and interactive, and free! So mark your calendars for the Open House next year.
Thanks so much to Richard Harrington for inviting me to present and to Adam Martray and the terrific RHED Pixel team for coordinating and taping the event (which featured a lot of other speakers, including Richard Harrington).
If you didn’t have a chance to go (the room was packed!) or watch the presentations live on UStream, I’ll share the link to those recorded presentations when they become available online. Meanwhile, the folks at RHED Pixel have generously shared the video of my presentation and if you have the time, check it out. I’m sharing tips for marketing your business, nonprofit, association or govt. agency with blogs, Facebook Pages, Twitter profiles, YouTube and more.
These are my highly subjective opinions about what has worked for me and what I have observed. If you concur, or you believe differently, or have tips to share, please leave a comment. I would love to hear your views.
