As conference contributor Patti Anklam wrote in describing The Business of Community Networking Conference scheduled for Boston, March 24-26:
"This conference is focused on businesses that want to engage customers in interacting, networking, and exchanging knowledge using social media.
The speaker lineup illustrates a commitment to offer best practices -- real nitty-gritty how-to information." ~ Patti Anklam
As a member of the conference Advisory Board, and Co-chair with Victoria G. Axelrod of the March 25 day one program, clearly I'm biased but have to tell you conference organizer Meghan Jacobi has done a fabulous job assembling presenters with deep experience and practical insights to share. Mark Bonchek, whom Patti Anklam mentions, is chairing day 2. Patti will join Victoria, Francois Gossieaux and I live, with Facebook Group owners Eric Edelstein and Kimberly Samaha remotely, for a panel exploring findings of our Facebook Groups in Business Investigation.
And this is just the beginning.
Do take a moment to download the brochure and see the list of industry experts --Chris Carfi, Michael Cayley, Susan GetGood, Michael Leifer, Elizabeth Piqq, David Rubenstein, Myra Norton, Andrew Essex, Liz Strauss, Luis Fernandez-- and representatives of companies from JD Power & Associates to CondoDomain, AVON, eBay, and the National Collegiate Scouting Association ready to share their experiences creating social networks and measuring the ROI of online marketing.
In addition note the workshops being offered March 24 by Mayra Ruiz-McPherson and Joel Richman. Victoria Axelrod and I are also leading a workshop "Developing a Community Networking Strategy- Steps to Take".
