The Coastal Connections Conference has announced Crystal Vilkaitis, owner of Crystal Media, a leading digital marketing company for the retail industry, will present a session during the event, Oct. 22-24, at the Margaritaville Resort in Orlando.
Vilkaitis is a world-class social media expert and powerful speaker who helps retailers shine online and bring their unique brilliance to the local and global masses. Fueling retailers with confidence to grow their visibility and results, Vilkaitis is on a mission to help Main Street businesses thrive.
She founded Crystal Media in 2012, where she’s worked with thousands of retailers to increase traffic, sales, and profits using social media. She’s shared the stage with industry giants like Martha Stewart, Gary Vaynerchuk, Bethenny Frankel, and Jim Kwik, and hosts the show Rooted in Retail — covering retail-centric topics like marketing, money, mindset, and more.
The session, titled, “It’s Your Time to Shine Online!” takes place Monday, Oct. 23, from 2 to 3 p.m. During the session, Vilkaitis shares the proven framework for more meaningful and consistent social media results.
Attendees will learn how to stop being the best kept secret and start operating their social media with a plan. Like many retailers, you might be stuck in the same routines — posting the same kind of content to the same people and you’re probably getting the same ol’ results.
In this session, get ready to jumpstart your social selling mindset and finally create meaningful and real results through social media! You’ll adapt how you currently think about social media and leave with the actual framework you need to confidently commit to making a change to your strategy. Gain clarity on:
- The real reasons why your social does/does not work
- The easy Daily 5 process (5 steps, 5 mins or less/day)
- What will motivate you to stay consistent
- How to get your team involved
- The most effective ways to PLAN
“Seaside retailers should attend the Coast Connections Conference to connect with like-minded retailers, learn about the latest industry trends and discover new ways to leverage social media,” says Vilkaitis. “My session will empower attendees to have more confidence in their social media efforts by demonstrating how to effectively drive real results like increased traffic and sales, while saving time and hassle. Attendees will leave feeling inspired and motivated to take action on what they learn, equipped with the practical tools and tips they need to succeed!”
“Knowing how to use social media effectively is critical in today’s competitive retail world, but many retailers are intimidated,” says Kristin Ely, Coastal Connections Conference director. “Crystal’s unique approach helps retailers overcome their fears and show up online consistently leading to more traffic and more sales. This is a can’t-miss session for coastal retailers.”
