TAG Enterprise 2.0 Presentation: Hear That? Sounds Like Money!

They lied. "Build a better mousetrap, and the world will beat a path to your door." Yes, it's an UNtruth.

2011-01-23

ATLANTA, GA, January 23, 2011 (Press-News.org) They lied. "Build a better mousetrap, and the world will beat a path to your door." Yes, it's an UNtruth. The truth is, even with a great product -- even with a powerful differential advantage -- you need to bring in customers -- preferably lots of them. Music Intelligence Solutions is doing just that, using technology to build a community around their company.
Their "mousetrap" is attracting lots of buzz; they've developed an algorithm that accurately predicts a song's popularity. It's patented as glitzy "Hit Song Science." Less glamorous is the business of attracting audiences to "discover" these new potential hits and the bands who perform them. That's where they "get social" with social media, blogs, widgets, apps and more!
Attend the TAG enterprise 2.0 Society presentation, you'll learn:
• How to wrap an app around your product
• When social media can fan the flames of buyers' desires
• Where blogging provides payback
• How to use contests to engage the ego of reluctant customers
