ActiveEdge Hits the Airwaves with “The Chamber Report”

On May 13th, 2010 Diane Vautier of ActiveEdge hit the local airwaves along with Leslie Posten of Uptown Uncorked and Casey Cheshire of Transparent Language for “The Chamber Report Radio Show“.

The Topic:  Social Media – How it’s Affecting Business in Southern NH.

The AM news and talk radio show is a relatively new program organized by the the Greater Nashua Chamber of Commerce to share interesting topics with the local business community.   It airs every Thursday from 11 AM – Noon on WSMN 1590 News and Talk Radio Nashua.   Each week, well known radio show host Ed Lecius, and producer George Papoulias help the Nashua Chamber bring the relevant business topics to the listeners.

Social Media Breakfast Comes to Nashua

On Friday, May 21, 2010 The Social Media Breakfast New Hampshire made it’s debut at Millyard Technology Park in Nashua, NH where roughly 85-90 attendees gathered to listen in on the conversation surrounding the burgeoning topic of Social Media.  ActiveEdge was fortunate to be able to sponsor the event along with DimDim’s Kevin Micalizzi.

Although the nationally organized Social Media Breakfast has been around for a few years, 3 to be exact, New Hampshire has more recently started joining in.  The Nashua event marked the 12th of it’s kind in New Hampshire, thanks to Leslie Poston of Uptown Uncorked in Portsmouth, NH who brought the event to the area.

So what is the Social Media Breakfast? Their own web site says it best:

“The Social Media Breakfast was founded by Bryan Person in August 2007 as an event where social media experts and newbies alike come together to eat, meet, share, and learn. Marketers, PR pros, entrepreneurs, bloggers, podcasters, new-media fanatics, and online social networkers are all welcome to attend.

The breakfast series began in Boston and has now spread to 40 cities throughout the United States and around the world.”

Pretty impressive for a Beantown local, and a winning combination for the various business communities, like Nashua, who are reaping the benefits of local experts sharing how they do it, what works, and what they’re still struggling with.  It’s a great learning venue for those interested in finding out more of what Social Media is and how it works.

If you missed this Social Media Breakfast, don’t worry.  The next one in Nashua is scheduled for September. But if you just can’t wait til fall, check out other Social Media Breakfast events throughout the state at SMBNH.org, or follow ActiveEdge on Twitter, we post about them.  See you all at the next one.
