Speaking

You want someone to speak about social media who will make you think.  You want your audience to be entertained, while still learning the most they can in every moment you are paying for.  Jay Dolan gives presentations that will not only make you question what the heck you are doing on a social network, but also teach you to find the most value from every connection you make.

What do I speak about?

Here are some topics I’ve spoken about or have proposed:

  • Anti-Social Media - Breaking Connections for fun and profit.
  • Who Owns Social Media? They Do.
  • How to make content people care about
  • Social Media and Recruiting - How to Stalk Ethically.
  • Why you need to be yourself, not your personal brand.
  • Why online mega-communities fail.
  • Performance and Online Identity
