The annual Rocks Digital Marketing Conference created to celebrate Social Media Day took place last week. Digital marketers, both local and national, came to discuss and celebrate Social Media Day and the inner workings of all that is digital marketing.
Rachel Morgan of Advice Interactive Group and Roxanne Roark of R3 Social Media have teamed up to bring you the best tweets of the conference. They are all short and sweet with plenty of actionable tips, tricks or tools to try! Or, we simply found them funny and couldn’t resist sharing them with you. Without further ado …
