“Social media has moved far beyond just a fun way to interact with friends. Itʼs a serious business tool,” said Pelletier. “Social media matters more than many meeting planners realize.

Planners who arenʼt integrating social media as part of their marketing strategy are missing a tremendous opportunity.”
