I’m Speaking at SMX West on How To Build Buzz on Facebook
SMX west is hands-down the best venue for any search conference as it offers a hotel, conference center, networking events, restaurant and bar – all in one location … a networking dream. I am honored to be speaking on the “Building Buzz On Facebook: Getting Liked & Shared” panel with Ty Downing the CEO of SayItSocial with the one and only Danny Sullivan moderating.
I am really excited for my presentation as I am going to be breaking it down step-by-step [ohh-baby!] and showing some great examples. I guarantee that it will be one of the most informative panels of the day and worth the price of the ticket alone for that matter, so hurry up and register today while you still can!
