Also ACCUR’s representatives are active members of both Refresh Miami and the South Florida chapter of Social Media Club, the only two social communities of Web 2.0 and Social Medias enthusiasts and professionals in South Florida.

Social Media and Social Networking have now become a very hot and serious subject. Companies are investing a lot to improve their presence on the web and their Search Engine Optimization (SEO). We can mention for example in our luxury and consumer goods industry the Kiehl’s Gives Back and the Club Swatch. Both these companies have understood the interest of increasing their reach to existing communities on the web whether through their blog, Facebook pages or Twitter accounts.

The issue is that while recruiting such type of expertise, you will very quickly notice there is no academic program, no university and no previous specific background apart from a “field” experience no older than 6 months. In addition true professionals and experts in the field are very rare and almost impossible to recruit without real initial Social Media and Web 2.0 experience.

Thanks to its excellent reputation among very famous clients and its expertise in Social Media, ACCUR is proud to announce its new Social Media Recruiting Practice.  So whether you are looking to launch and maintain a corporate blog, do some buzz on Facebook and Twitter, or launch viral marketing strategies, don’t hesitate to contact us.
