Providence, Rhode Island – February 25, 2013

TribalVision, an outsourced marketing department for hire located in the U.S. and Belgium, is pleased to announce that it has been selected by Providence Business News as a presenter for the second consecutive year at the publication’s Summit on Social Media and Marketing. The event is being held on Wednesday, February 27th at the Crowne Plaza in Warwick, Rhode Island. 

Providence Business News editor Mark Murphy will once again monitor the sessions. Panelists include: Ryan Bonifacino, VP Digital Strategy, Alex and Ani; Corissa St. Laurent, Constant Contact; Brian Lamoureux, Partner, Pannone Lopes Devereaux & West, and Chris Ciunci, Founder and CEO of TribalVision.

The Summit will feature two panels, “Social Media and Integrated Marketing: The Hype, Reality, and the Future” followed by “ ‘Big Data’ and Mobility.” The panels will focus on how to translate a social media presence into leads and sales; how to strategically choose the right online platforms; how to leverage data to improve marketing; and top tips to be smart marketers this year. Chris Ciunci will lead the panels and focus on practical techniques businesses can utilize to market more efficiently and intelligently. 

TribalVision is excited to build on the foundation of last year’s panel discussions. “I’m honored to serve on the panel again and continue the conversation on e-marketing and strategy with the Rhode Island business community. While there are certainly exciting things happening in the social media space, business owners also need to realize that social media is one of many channels that they need to be focusing their attention on,” said Chris. “What we’ve learned in the trenches working with our clients is that allocating time and resources solely to social media is a losing lead generation strategy. Rather, it should be viewed as one of many channels that exist and should be invested in accordingly. I look forward to addressing this at the upcoming summit and helping the audience come away with several key takeaways that they can begin implementing right away.”
