Social Business Scenarios - Very tactical #socbiz #ibmsocialbiz #ibm

 

Yesterday, I was in Phillie for a B2B Conference on Social !  It was an outstanding group of folks and lots of good deep dives on practical use cases and tactics.

I had a few companies ask me for some use cases based on their work. I'll share those here and tell me if they help you as well!  If so, I'll blog a few more!
