Blogging is about finding a voice. Since I started this blog last fall mine certainly has found more clarity. I started it with the title ‘My Conversations’, but I’ve changed it to Community Strategist which better suits my focus on the aspects of community building, networking & the importance of creating relationships.
Recently Francois Gossieaux invited me to join a group blog on Marketing 2.0. I’m excited to represent the voice of community building alongside some great thought leaders in the marketing field! Isn’t the logo great?!
The other contributors blogging at Marketingtwo.com are:
- Valeria Maltoni, Conversation Agent is a Fast Company Expert blogger
- David Berkowitz is Director of Emerging Media & Client Strategy for 360i
- Renee Hopkins Callahan is editor of publications at Innosight LLC, a Boston-Area consulting firm

- David Rogers is Director of the Center on Global Brand Leadership at Columbia Business School
- Constantine von Hoffman is a journalist, social media consultant, award-winning science fiction writer, stand-up comedian and sometime marketer
Francois has also included a community with the blog. Join us there for further conversations. I hope you’ll pop over to the blog periodically. I love the theme & the way that each writer’s photo is featured when they post. I think that adds personalization to our work & is another way to connect us to the reader.
And when Francois & I compared notes we found that we have a common vision. Definitely exciting things ahead!
Hi Connie – thanks for the link to the new blog/community. I am glad you are part of it and look forward to some great conversations.
We should definitely continue talking about the community management activities we started talking about two weeks ago!
Cheers – Francois
