Announcing the World’s 1st Twebinar (twitter+webinar) Series for airlines (Plus: How you can win tickets worth $600)

* Twebinar : tu/aeb/inar = Twitter + Webinar.

What’s a Twebinar? Not just your usual sit-back-and-listen format! In SimpliFlying’s Twebinars, you will not have to wait until the end of the session to ask questions. You can join the discussion LIVE on Twitter using a hashtag (#SMairlines), where you can ask questions and get answers in real-time – from the speaker and all the participants, while the presentation is going on.

Now that you know what’s a Twebinar, I need to tell you what’s the fuss about!

Driving revenue from social media for airlines is critical

I first spoke about this topic during a keynote in Abu Dhabi. The presentation and the ideas were so well liked, that I was invited to speak again in Singapore on the same topic. And this was followed by an article on Mashable on the same lines. Given its popularity, SimpliFlying has partnered with Canadian web events company, WebSolutions, to bring you a series of innovative Twebinars over the next three months on driving revenue and engagement from social media, specifically for airlines.
