best of SBCWarning: a bit of SSP ahead. If you’re down with that, read on. If you’re not, move along, nothing to see here, folks, go back to your homes.

So: over the years, I feel like I’ve shared a million dollars (or more) worth of great info on the blawg, but a million dollars isn’t cool. You know what’s cool? A billion dollars.

And that’s exactly what you’ll feel like you’re getting when you join my three-day free (yup. I said F-R-E-E) mini-training: “The Social PR Launchpad: Unleash Your Inner Social PR Superhero” on November 13-15 from 2-3 pm ET.

1. Three Keys to Blueprinting Your Social PR Strategy

Why: “As I was going through my notes, and organizing tasks and to-dos in Asana, I realized sharing how we go about blueprinting – our process of researching and developing – a strategy might be helpful to you.”

2. Seven Frequently Asked Questions on Social PR Strategy

Why: “Because PR that isn’t strategic can be extremely tiring, and disheartening, and make you feel as if you’re walking through a never-ending maze. And why would anyone want to put themselves through that?”

3. No One Puts Social (PR) In a Corner

Why: “Because as you start to integrate your efforts and socialize them, your awareness and reliability as a content source starts to grow. So you slowly start to acquire a larger piece of the overall conversation, which is exactly what happens when you build thought leadership… which is a large part of what PR – and social PR – is about.”

4. 10 Observations on “Real” Public Relations and Social Media

Why: “It takes a lot to build, and be part of, a tribe. And while one’s co-workers, neighbors, etc., can become one’s tribe, they are not automatically so. But if you give them the chance, they will.”

5. How to Use Social Media And Stay Couth

Why: “But if you’re just going to listen, without doing much else, you’re basically using social media as a monitoring tool, and not much else. And that’s fine, except you’re not going to get much out of it in terms of community building, thought leadership, etc.”

6. Social Sharing: What Makes It Tick?

Why: “And if you are practicing (or believe in) what I call ‘social PR,’ then you already subscribe to the philosophy that social sharing isn’t just about being nice to people, it’s a strategic imperative that ultimately supports relationship-building for your business.”

7. 15 Reasons Your PR Pitches Suck [Redux]

Why: “The truth is that we’ve all made our mistakes. But it worries me that some of these things – which include basic commonsense – are still happening to the degree they do. It’s one of the problems with PR.”
