The Social Media Tourism Symposium (SoMeT) is a yearly social media conference held in the United States, Europe and Australia. At each of the conferences, where tourism, digital and marketing come together, many hundreds of destination marketing professionals gather to get inspired and exchange ideas.
The organizer, Destination Think! , invited me to come over and do a keynote and an interview at the Nashville event. I was impressed by the beautiful spacious set-up with plenty of work space for all the attendees.

Turn a negative into a positive. Get a grip of online sentiment. That is the ROI of social media. Brilliant press. @JochemOnline #SoMeT14US

#SoMeT14US @JochemOnline great cases how to deal with negative sentiment. Learning: think in options, not in limitations.

At #SoMeT14US @JochemOnline is discussing mistakes made by @KLM. Refreshing; success comes from failure. Great to hear rather than boasting.
