Grossman will discuss how to strategically employ emerging techniques and tools to better engage key insurance industry audiences in the rapidly-evolving, "click-to-connect" digital communications landscape.  Grossman will also highlight the correlative evolution PR Newswire has achieved in order to provide online communication platforms and workflow solutions that meet the needs of leading-edge, professional brand communicators. His presentation, "Re-Imagining Communications to Drive Brand Engagement," will discuss:

  • How to communicate effectively within various channels, especially social media
  • How to enable two-way dialogue and viral sharing to increase potential audience
  • How to drive and influence conversations around brands and engage audiences to drive action
  • The key ways to promote brands over social networks

"Modes and channels of communication have changed dramatically in just the last few years," said Grossman. "We can expect the rate of change in communications to continue and possibly move even more quickly in the future. In order to effectively convey messages to an organization's critical audiences, it's essential to know not only where these audiences live online, but how best to engage them amid the torrent of chatter and competing messages."
