SCG featured in WORKMAGAZINE

Tuesday, January 20th, 2009

workmagpic_2For the Winter 2009 issue, WORKMAGAZINE called upon Joya again, seeking her expertise with the Internet and social media. In a piece entitled “Minding over What Matters: Leverage Your Public Relations,” regional public relations practitioners offered advice on staying ahead of the game.

Joya is well-versed in the emerging trends of public relations. This is best demonstrated by SCG’s success with our first launch of Spring Partners’ online notebook, springpad, back in October. The campaign was the agency’s first full-fledged Web 2.0 PR campaign. We were able to generate some great results with over 40 blog reviews, including popular sites like Lifehacker and Web Worker Daily.

The event, which took place on the evening before the State of the Net Conference on Capitol Hill, featured hands-on demonstrations from companies like Google, Comcast, Panasonic and Microsoft; displaying the latest technologies and the impact of the Internet.

We enjoyed the opportunity to spend time with NTT America and are looking forward to participating again next year.
