Get Social Oklahoma City

Oklahoma City is my closest metro area. Get Social brought together local and regional experts on social media for a half day "unconference."

Becky McCray
Given the chance, I shared what rural and small town entrepreneurs already know about building community, marketing a business, and surviving a tough economy. As we went around the room, we found that everyone there really did have a small town connection. It's more common than people think.

Dealing with critics came up during the opening keynote discussion. One of the best bits of advice was "The dog keeps barking, and the train keeps moving on." You'll find that and the rest of the lessons learned in The Best Advice for Dealing with Critics.

Organizer Jessica Miller-Merrell plans more of these events across the region, so if you get a chance to participate, do so.
