In our previous blogs, we’ve introduced businesses to the risks of social media marketing and social media marketing cases involving legal and reputation risk. In order to compete in today’s digitally driven economy, businesses of all sizes must engage in social media marketing and content marketing for SEO or Search Engine Optimization. Organizations engaging in digital marketing need to have a plan in place to ensure their compliance with the complicated local and federal laws.

To assist companies with this goal, Avax Consulting and Law2sm have teamed up to provide Socially Legal Audit (SLA) training and auditor certification courses. The first of these certification courses was recently completed in Atlanta, GA and was a resounding success!

The two-day training class took place in February 2013 and provided the participants with the opportunity to become the first certified Socially Legal Auditors. These newly certifiedauditors are available to provide assessment of current exposure and risk coupled with a plan for compliance for any organization, especially those in regulated industries.

Their recent training and certification provides them the ability to take inventory of an organization’s online/social media/digital footprint, provides a comprehensive assessment of legal risks, and recommends strategies to reduce corporate liability and a plan for the protection of digital assets if requested.
