SXSW 2023

Navigating Calculated Risk on Social Media

Description:

Most social media panels cover hashtags, video formats, and platforms. But few talk about one of the most important qualities of running a successful social strategy: risk. This panel will dive deep into how social media leaders across various brands and industries utilize risk to create a social media presence that stands out. We'll talk about the importance of trusting your social team, hiring talent who is the demographic you want to speak to, entertaining your audience, communicating with management, and, of course, what happens when something goes too far.
