Social Media Convention

Today's Thoughts By Jeff Head 9/19/12 Social Media Convention
As each year passes, more and more truckers are becoming aware that they do have a choice. Gone are the days where you either broke every rule, every regulation and you put that load through no matter how sleepy you became or else. Not in today’s world, or so you would think. Not quite just yet anyway. We still have a little further down this road to go. But the speed in which we are getting there is faster and faster with each passing day.

In today’s world, most of that speed is coming is coming from Social Media. Drivers all across the country now can take a just few minutes each day and come together sharing information and within seconds, things are being done that used to take years to make happen. We have found our way from the remote areas of the country into the new Social Media Jet Age.

So how do we use this new found freedom? That is where Donna and Allen Smith come in. Each year they put together a “Trucking Social Media” Convention for drivers like you and I to attend. They have lots a great things going on like different awards giving out and a Pride In Your Ride contest. But I think the most important part to me about what is happening here, is the huge amount of information that is given out not only about the trucking industry, but also how to use the tools of Social Media to get our messages as truckers out there.

Our time as truckers is now. No longer can we sit back and allow others to define who and what we are. It is up to use to show through Social Media that truckers will make the difference when it come to such things as keeping our highways safe and demanding to run safe and legal. It is like I always say, truckers are now leading this fight, and it is time the rest of the world knows that.

So here is the link, stop by and check it out. Be there or be square.
