ABI’S GROWING SOCIAL MEDIA PRESENCE
PROVIDES MEMBERS AND THE PUBLIC WITH A NEW FORUM FOR BANKRUPTCY NEWS AND
EVENTS
September 30, 2011, Alexandria, Va. — With
nearly 2,700 LinkedIn members, over 1,000 Twitter followers and more
than 500 Facebook fans, the American Bankruptcy Institute’s (ABI)
social presence continues to expand to provide the most up-to-date
bankruptcy information to practitioners and the public. In conjunction
with an award-winning website, publications and educational materials,
ABI’s social media channels provide members and the public an
expedient way of delivering bankruptcy information on familiar networks
for users to efficiently share.
ABI’s growth in social media supplements the organization’s
mission to act as a forum for its members and the public to find out
about and discuss important bankruptcy topics. Posts to ABI’s
Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn networks deliver information on hot
bankruptcy topics and news, updates on ABI events and programming, and
the latest membership resources that ABI has to offer. ABI also utilizes
social media to provide a social media forum for discussion at
conferences and events by assigning and promoting a unique Twitter
hashtag to each of its conferences. Additionally, ABI provides discounts
and exclusive offers over all of its networks for its members and the
public to save on ABI events and products.
