During his 25 years in the high tech
electronics industry, Ron Ploof became fascinated with the relationship between
people their communications technologies. In 2005, he joined a community of
independent content creators who wrote blogs, recorded podcasts, and produced
online video. The community led him to social networking sites such as Facebook
and Twitter. Convinced that these new technologies would change traditional
business communications forever, he founded OC New Media, LLC, a consulting firm
dedicated to helping executives do two things:
- understand the unique characteristics of
these New Media channels
- develop a strategy for incorporating these
channels into their corporate communications practices
Ron has been interviewed on local and national
radio programs, blogs, podcasts, and has been quoted in national and trade
publications. He’s had the privilege of speaking before audiences such as The
Public Relations Society of America, The Orange County Executive Network, The
National Investor Relations Institute (NIRI), San Diego Social Media Club, and
the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
