ASMP Colorado presents Rob Haggart's "Social Media for Photographers" May 24, 2011

Social Media has quickly changed the way people communicate and do business. If you're like most photographers you have Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn accounts and maybe you've done a bit of blogging, but you haven't figured out how this fits into your marketing plan. You're not alone, long established media and advertising businesses were caught off guard as social media revolutionized their industry. Staying informed, making a plan and taking action is essential for anyone running a business in this new environment. In this presentation, Rob Haggart will help you make sense of how these new tools work, show you photographers who are finding success with social media and inspire you to take action.

Rob Haggart is founder of the popular photo industry blog APhotoEditor.com and 2009 recipient of the Griffin Museum of Photography Focus Award for Rising Star, awarded to an "emerging force the photographic community is watching with interest."

Haggart is the former director of photography for Men's Journal and Outside magazines. He has received photo editing recognition from Graphis, American Photography, Society of Publication Designers, Communication Arts, American Society of Magazine Editors, Photo District News, and was chosen as part of the creative team of the year by Ad Week. His most recent venture, APhotoFolio.com builds portfolio websites for photographers.
