Use your platforms to their strengths, don't just spray and pray #CBoCSocial

[Julie Leroux @JulieDLeroux]

Important lesson from #CBoCsocial - get on the ground to meet staff and get their stories 🖊📖

[Mandy McCrone @mandymccrone]

Takeaway: be more hands-on w/ Comms colleagues re: SM content planning #CBoCSocial

[Mandy McCrone @mandymccrone]

On bots: the Obama WH used them on FB to receive Q’s, and replied that he received 10 FB msgs in his evening briefing pack #CBoCSocial

.@jenniferhollett: When ppl tweet at you, you owe them a response, even if you think they're calling you out. They appreciate it #CBoCSocial

[Mandy McCrone @mandymccrone]

If you’re just participating, use the OL of your choice (or language of account) 2/2 #CBocSocial

[Mandy McCrone @mandymccrone]

Treat SM like a mtg: if yer hosting, make sure MC, intros and segments are bil. Be positioned to answer things in either OL 1/ #CBocSocial https://t.co/nSpU5TYxfZ

On bilingualism: You can click tweets for translations by Bing or by volunteers who translate. #socialmedia #CBoCSocial

[Darcy Boucher-Luca @darcyboucher]

#DYK #BellLetsTalk was number 1 hashtag on @xcanada? LOVE that this important conversation + campaign was so widespread. #CBoCsocial

[HK Khan @socialcommsprof]

Think of Twitter Moments as a way for Canadians who do not follow your account to discover your content #socialmedia #CBoCSocial

[Mandy McCrone @mandymccrone]

Weird full ⏺ moment watching @jenniferhollett’s talk. I interv’d her yrs ago when I was working at the RCMP (and nervous AF) #CBoCSocial

[NSPS (CBoC) @Resiliency_CBoC]

So what do Twitter users want? Again, good insights from @xcanada @jenniferhollett #CBoCSocial #socialmedia

[Emily MacIsaac @EmsterMac]

Remember to customize content to platform. Different platforms, different purpose. @jenniferhollett #CBoCSocial

[Mandy McCrone @mandymccrone]

I love this, although I’d argue that YouTube should be on the line b/t discovery and relaxation #CBocSocial https://t.co/i4GpROGIhA

[Linda Watson @lindalouwatson]

Awesome slide to explain what platform to use. #cbocsocial

[HK Khan @socialcommsprof]

Q: Do you monitor and capitalize on trends and memes? Through regions or HQ? A: HQ informs content developpers of special days. #CBoCSocial
