Social Media Strategy Consulting Projects

As some of the work we do is quite sensitive and may apply to company strategic planning, we respect the decision of our clients to decline being named on the Web. The client names can be used in discussions with Harbrooke group.

The Association of Junior Leagues International

Howard Greenstein spoke at AJLI’s national conference in March 2008. After his speech on Social Media, there were so many inquires that AJLI asked Harbrooke to create a guide for Junior Leagues on the implementation and use of Social Media for recruting, member retention and community outreach. Topics included Facebook, Blogging, and use of private groups for collaboration. Harbrooke delivered this to AJLI right before their leadership conference in October, 2008. Greenstein was a presenter at the event, and his materials are referenced in this blog post about Facebook and Blogs for Non-profit Recruiting and Communications.
