Nashville, TN- April 26, 2010-

If you could know everything someone thought about you, would you want to know?

With the explosion of social media sites, a vocal viral community and the trend towards total transparency,  business leaders are realizing there is no choice - it's all out there.  Proactive executives see the opportunity to differentiate through this new, evolving platform and are engaging their target audiences in more direct ways than ever before.  Even leaders who are a little intimidated by all things that tweet, blog and go bump in the night recognize it is a powerful force that will impact their business. 

Big South Social Media Summit (.com) presented by consulting and placement firm, Vaco, will lift the veil and demystify how companies are using social media to drive revenue and profits. More than the mechanics, this is a relatable summit singularly focused on results-oriented communication in an increasingly virtual world.

More than 1500 business executives are expected to attend the all-day event to be held at the Nashville symphony hall on Friday August 13, 2010.  They will gain best practices from some of the most forward-thinking business giants who have implemented and monitored social media strategies for companies like The Mayo Clinic, Thomas Nelson, Southwest, SAP, Comcast, Domino's, the White House, Big Machine Records, and CMT,  as well as leaders of smaller businesses who will speak directly on how they drive revenue through social media.
