Networking in the Northland: Social media event of the season

May 23, 2014 Updated May 23, 2014 at 12:28 PM CDT

Duluth, MN (NNCNOW.com) --- Whether it's Facebook or Twitter, the world social media is ever changing... and you've got to be able keep up.

World renowned and local social media experts shared tips and tweets during third annual, daylong Zenith Social Media Conference in Duluth. Industry leaders gave presentations about how to integrate social media into marketing campaigns.

Others talked about how people can use social media to promote themselves. One expert talked about how social media has become a two way conversation between companies and their customers.

So instead of talking directly to them 'hey buy my stuff buy my stuff' lets talk about something we both share. So if I'm trying to sell oranges, instead of saying hey buy oranges, let's talk about all the things we can do with oranges. Let's make orange juice or orange cakes right? It's a different approach to marketing, President of DragonSearch, Rick Dragon, said.

Our very own social media expert Kevin Jacobsen also gave a presentation at the conference about how to use social media to advance an organization or company. More than three hundred people attended the event.

Narendra Modi, who will be sworn in as Prime Minister of India on Monday, used Twitter actively during the elections, which his party BJP eventually won. The Malaysian Insider pic, May 24, 2014American social networking company Twitter is planning to replicate parts of its India election strategy across countries that go to polls this year, after it emerged as a key tool for politicians and media companies during the world's largest democratic exercise.

In India, Twitter Inc worked closely with politicians including the victor Narendra Modi who used the platform for election campaigning, and also partnered with mobile and media firms to distribute tweets online and offline.

Now, with polling due in countries such as Brazil, Indonesia and the United States later this year, the San Francisco-based company plans to take its India lessons abroad to expand its foothold in the political arena and increase its user base.

"The election more than any other moment provides a nice microcosm of the value Twitter can add ... we are sharing widely the lessons of this Indian election around the world," said Rishi Jaitly, India market director at Twitter.

Last week, the company sent its top political strategist to Brazil to explain the potential of the social network to senators, who are likely to use Twitter's six-second video app Vine for campaigning after it was used by Indian politicians, the company said.

For the US election, the company has started looking for partners to replicate their "Tweet To Remember" feature used in India, which enables users to add the voting date automatically to their mobile calendar using a tweet.

Twitter widely emerged as a political tool first during the 2012 US presidential elections, and then during the Arab Spring uprisings in North Africa and the Middle East. Today, US President Barack Obama has more than 43 million Twitter followers.

In India, Modi's Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) embraced the technology ahead of rivals, collaborating with thousands of volunteers to spread the Hindu nationalist leader's message and counter criticism on the web.

It was the country's first major Twitter election, and the novelty of the technology gave an advantage to the politicians who adopted first especially the BJP, said Milan Vaishnav of Carnegie Endowment for International Peace.
