&lt;br/&gt;
Event Details: &lt;div class=&quot;description&quot;&gt;&lt;br&gt;
When Lee Jeans initiated its flagship cause marketing outreach in 1996, words like Web 2.0 and social media didn't exist. In 2007, Lee National Denim Day launched into the nontraditional space by utilizing communications with YouTube, consumer blogs, Facebook, MySpace, and customized Webpages. In doing so, the brand primed its 12-year consumer outreach campaign for decades more of success. Attendees will receive:&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
An understanding of new media strategies and the impact they can have&lt;br&gt;
Tangible tips for effective and successful use of social media tools&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial&quot;&gt;In talking with Jeff Bond, Beyond Borders Chair, he stated that, &#8220;This event was a tremendous success due to the high-quality speakers, relevant topics, and company representatives seeking valuable information they can use to drive their own marketing initiatives. Because it brought together members of the same industry who would not otherwise commingle, attendees gained insight into similar challenges they face. And through the networking opportunities throughout the day, participants were able to discuss solutions and take-away points for their own organizations.&#8221;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial&quot;&gt;Nancy Moriarty from Mary Kay Inc. commented that, &#8220;The presentation by Fluor was especially insightful. For the value, I couldn&#8217;t have gotten any better information or training than what this conference provided. And on this note, we look forward to the limitless possibilities of next year&#8217;s Beyond Borders Conference.&#8221;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
