      3. Set a date
      4. Repurpose content for different platforms
      5. Use hooks in your copy

          Podcast Episode #339: Takeaways from The Social Media Marketing World 2024 Experience
          03/26/2024

          Takeaways from The Social Media Marketing World 2024 Experience
          1. Kara Whitehouse, CEO & Founder / digit-ALL marketing services
          2. • We need to forget about follower counts and focus on genuine and authentic connections.
            • This event inspired me to embrace AI and to not let the constant evolution of AI tools and daily technology changes overwhelm me to the point I’m frozen. Pick a couple of the tools and focus on those and incorporate them into our processes.
            • There are so many people in this world that want to teach and help you grow! Embrace not being an expert and constantly be open to learning and soaking in the expertise of others.
          3. Daniel Perez
          4. • At first I was overwhelmed. I definitely felt like a small fish in a huge pond when I got there. Yay for imposter syndrome! The conference boosted my confidence both personally and professionally.
          5. Christina Olivarez, Founder & CEO of The Social Butterfly Gal & Hustle + Socialize
          6. • Even in a crowded online world, there are people who are YOUR PEOPLE who understand and get you, find those people. You are also never alone.
          7. Michelle Micalizzi
          8. • Kindness truly is an art form, and Social Media Marketing World serves as a magnet for these compassionate artists!
            • AI, when partnered with, exponentially amplifies our creative abilities.
            • Authenticity never goes out of style!
          9. Amanda Wilbur
          10. • In December, 2023 I quit my comfy government job and hung my digital shingle up to begin my entrepreneurial journey as a psychotherapist in private practice. Only I wasn’t getting any clients adding my name to therapy directories. I knew I needed something more. In comes #SMMW24. I learned more about social media marketing but even more I met like-minded people. I connected with someone who gets my brand and will help with a marketing strategy. I met people that are already successful in this genre and I have hope for the future, and lastly, I made friends with people that understand this entrepreneurial path and encourage me to keep on keeping on
          11. Antionette Taylor , Marketing and Communications Coordinator / Cempa Community Care
          12. • The connections are invaluable, I’m so grateful. It was a huge relief knowing I am not the only one dealing with “imposter syndrome”.
          13. Kristine Scharsch, Sales & Marketing Manager / Mills Roofing Inc
          14. • I came to focus on two things – improving my YouTube channel and with a curiousity about AI. SMMW more than delivered on this – but the people and the networking are what made it special (including yourself!). Plus seeing and listening to the speakers was inspiring not just because of their content, but because I am also a speaker, so I was absorbing tips and best practice. Safe travels – Louise Brogan, LinkedIn with Louise – a linkedin marketing agency and consultancy.
            • It was a HUGE confidence booster both personally and professionally.
            • I thought I was the only struggling with the disruptions but I wasn’t alone and that was refreshing.
            • The people, I made 1 friend at the pre conference meet up and I walked out with so many more.
          15. Phil Mershon, Director of Experience / Social Media Examiner
          16. • It was an unforgettable experience. Making genuine connections, diving deep into new insights, and getting hands-on evaluations for my clients' work were game-changers. Can't wait to apply all I've learned and bring that SMMW energy to our social media strategies!!! Khushboo Mazhar Web Worx (Social Media Manager)
            • I noticed a greater energy, stronger interest in learning, and much more intentional networking. I was deeply moved by the introverts and first time attendees who stepped up to organize meetups and Table Talks. The atmosphere felt electric with serendipitous connections and curiosity.
