Hello! My name is Maleia and I am a Recruiter at Delicato Family Wines. I have also stepped into a new role in assisting our team with our social media. Although I am great on my own pages, I know I have a lot to learn about the backend of creating content. I would love to see more engagement on our pages as opposed to just chasing likes. Looking forward to learning all I can!

Welcome @maleia.warren! If you haven’t already, check out the Content Creation Forum! We’d also love to hear what you want to learn more about regarding content creation as we plan future events! 

Welcome everyone! So glad you have joined our community.

I’m Laura, one of the Arboretum Community Managers based out of Seattle. I can’t wait to get to know all of you. 

Hello, my name is Bree and I am a Digital Marketing Associate. My primary focus is managing social media accounts for clients spanning diverse industries, including home inspections, tank insulation, and jewelry. I enjoy broadening my knowledge and staying up-to-date with the latest trends to provide the best service to my clients. However, one of the biggest challenges I've been facing recently is low engagement rates. I'm eager to learn effective tactics to boost engagement on Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn.

What cool and diverse content to work on, @bree.bays! Engagement is always a really tricky space, but I’m confident you’ll find great ideas in the Arb.

Hey! I’m Chelsea and I work as a Digital Marketing Manager. I have experience doing socials for companies ranging from outdoor power equipment suppliers, hairdressers, marketing agencies, orthodontics, and beyond!

I’ve joined because I always like to learn more about how to create impactful and meaningful social posts, engage the community, and build up vanity metrics (followers, engagement, and reach). Excited to see what I learn.

Hi all!  I’m the owner of Hey Salty, a marketing & integrated comms agency in Central California, specializing in B2B solutions. We’re a Sprout Agency Partner, and I’m excited to learn about creating more value for my clients, growing my team’s capabilities and expanding our service offerings.

You can find me online on LinkedIn. Always looking to connect and grow my network.

Hey all!

I’m Taylor, working as a Social Media Manager for Gala. We’re an entertainment company utilising blockchain technology to provide digital ownership of assets to our community. We currently span across games, music and film verticals. My focus is in social content strategy, content creation, community management and reporting across our games portfolio.

I joined the Arboretum because I’m really interested in learning more about using granular data to better guide and tweak my strategies, as well as connect with more people in the industry. Look forward to being active in this forum!

Hi,

My name is Anna Kroier and I work as SoMe Coordinator at Zizzi. 

To be honest I’m not really sure how I ended up here in this team and what it’s all about. I just have a lot of ideas for improvement for Sprout (which is a new tool for us), so I was searching for a place to upload my ideas :-) 

Hi everyone,

I’m Chris, Head of Digital and Content at private markets asset manager ICG. 

We’re using Sprout as part of our fledgling corporate affairs strategy and in particular, building up content within Employee Advocacy. We’re starting to create our own content with an excellent agency I’ve partnered with at previous firms (SJR) and generally looking to catch our communications up with the  global growth and ambition of ICG.

I’ve been around for a while (!) in the news, content, PR and digital spaces and both in-house and agency side. However whereas I have lots of experience across different industries, I’m here not just to contribute but to learn -- I find those on the cutting edge of social media are often interns, grads, those on work experience and others in their early career. So if that’s you, I’d encourage you to speak up. If it’s not, ask them.

Hey everyone, 

My name is Lauren and I am a Marketing & Projects Executive at Chatter Communications, my main focuses have been around levelling up our social media strategy. After spending a year building great quality content I want to utilise our social channels to amplify our existing work in new ways to help drive engagement and leads. 

I’m looking to discover new ways of using Sprout to help me on my journey to improve our social media presence through reporting, listening and more! 

Thanks, 

Lauren 

Hi everyone. My name’s Oona. I’m one half of the Acas social media team along with my line manager Val.

One of the core focus points for our social media strategy is to explore ways of increasing engagement with SMEs particularly on LinkedIn. I’m also interested in lead gen tactics and using Sprout to gain more data insight our team can share with the rest of the organisation.

As Acas is an impartial organisation that is part of the UK Civil Service it’s not always as easy/straightforward to create innovative content, so if anyone has experience in creating content for the public sector I would be very interested!

Thanks all.

Oona

We recently joined Sprout for their reporting, but have fell in love with all the other tools we have with our plan.

My name is Audrey and I am the new Social Media Coordinator for my local county health department (Kansas City, MO and surrounding area). I’ve been in an account management role in marketing in the past, so I have some familiarity with social but I am looking for a deeper understanding in my new role. Not to mention public health marketing is a little intimidating in our current world.

Thanks for this resource!
