NARIP Welcomes Social Media Expert Madalyn Sklar

We are delighted to announce the appointment of Madalyn Sklar to the NARIP Houston Board. Madalyn joins NARIP Houston Executive Director Barry Coffing, Directors Lisa Schneider, Heidi Massin and Roxell Richards, and Marketing Managers Ohmare Washington and Bobbie Beasley.

In recent years, the words “Madalyn Sklar” have become synonymous with “social network maven” as this digital music marketing expert has grown her circles of influence.  We are delighted to have her on board with Team NARIP Houston (and in fact benefited from her shared expertise at a recent NARIP Houston program on using social media to market music).  She was also voted #2  Best New Media / Social Media Executive by her peers in NARIP’s 2011 Best in the Biz Survey (you can see results here).  This annual survey highlights outstanding executive talent and we are gratified to recognize people like Madalyn who have made superior contributions within our profession and community, and to have her officially on board with Team NARIP Houston.
