Jim Tobin, social media marketing expert and president of Ignite Social Media, helps companies understand and utilize social media. Jim began his career in public relations, serving among other capacities as one of the spokespersons for the Governor of Michigan. He has personally conducted over 1,000 media interviews, including appearances on CNN, CNBC Power Lunch, the Wall Street Journal, Fox News Channel and many more.
In 2007, Jim created Ignite Social Media, the original social media agency. Since then, he has educated hundreds of marketing and PR professionals, as well as top business executives, on how to leverage emerging social media tools to better connect with their constituents. Over the last year, Jim has addressed professionals around the country at meetings of the Public Relations Society of America, the American Marketing Association, Business Wire’s Conference Series and more.
Most importantly, Jim believes that sitting through a social media presentation should be, well, social. He makes each of his presentations two-way, and audience members enjoy them. In fact, after a full-day social media marketing workshop he conducted, the host organization surveyed attendees and found:
- When asked “Did the morning/afternoon sessions with Jim Tobin give you tangible info that you can use in your business,” 100% of attendees rated it as Excellent (72.22%) or Very Good (27.78%).
- When asked “Rate Jim Tobin on content/delivery of his presentations,” 95% of attendees rated him Excellent. 5% rated him Very Good. Nobody rated Jim lower than Very Good.
A video excerpt from that seminar is below.
