As Director of Digital Marketing for i24 Call Management Solutions,I work with company stakeholders to expand the company's reach, influence and sales using the website (www.i24image.com/) and social platforms. I gave up my consulting job to work for a Call Centre...and I love it.My biggest challenge as a self-employed social media strategist was to find clients who understood the business potential of social media marketing and the importance of a client focussed company culture.Companies usually fell into those who saw spending on digital marketing as an expense and those who saw it as an investment.Gary Blair, president of Image-24, represents the latter.I worked as a independent social marketing consultant for the last six yearsI consulted with clients on social media strategy, video-streaming production and content marketing.You can check out my website: http//rayhiltz.com for examples of my content and video work.I have over thirty years experience managing restaurants and performing arts companies. I understand the challenges of running a small business and the importance of relationships and collaboration in making it work.The show can also be heard on SoundCloud at https://soundcloud.com/rayhiltzI've presented on Social Media Marketing at Institut de tourisme et d'hôtellerie Québec (ITHQ), Université de Montréal, Sun Life Assurance, MEEX Networking Event and Social Media Breakfast Montreal.WEBSITE: http://rayhiltz.comEMAIL: ray@rayhiltz.comTwitter: @RayHiltzFacebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/newraycom/Google+: +RayHiltz (Profile Page) +NewRayCom (Business Page)Specialties:Social MediaSocial BusinessSocial Media MarketingContent MarketingPersonal BrandingOnline ReputationPublic SpeakingBloggingTrainingCoachingManagement ConsultingHuman ResourcesProject management
