I was in Cleveland last week to speak at the Airports Council International 2011 Marketing & Communications Conference, and was invited to the Cleveland Indians game with some of the other conference goers (thanks again Kristen!). I met Rob Campbell who is the Coordinator of Digital Media for the Cleveland Indians and he was kind enough to give us a tour of their Social Suite, the place they invite influencial bloggers, photographers and social media savvy fans to enjoy free drinks, light snacks and a solid WiFi connection. In this video, Rob shares a little more about the Social Suite and the efforts to engage their fans using social tools:

I want to thank Rob for his time and the tour of the Social Suite. Being a bit of a baseball fan, I love seeing how the different teams are reaching out to local influencers and fans to build a deeper relationship. And if you are in Cleveland (or heading there) and want to get yourself an invite into the Social Suite, fill out their application and tell Rob that Social Media Club sent you!
