In Houston for the Small Business Marketing Unleashed Conference
I'm sitting in my hotel room now at the
Northwest Forest Conference Center
which is located just outside Houston in Cypress, Texas. I will be live blogging
the Small Business
Marketing Unleashed Conference tomorrow and Tuesday, posting my notes on
Search Engine Guide. The
conference is being put on by Search Engine Guide and
Small Business Brief and is the
first of what they hope to be many conferences of this kind.
It has a different flare than the bigger shows such as Search Engine Strategies,
Search Marketing Expo and even PubCon in that it caters specifically to small
businesses. Additionally conference participants get much more personalized
attention from some of the leaders in the search marketing industry.
I will be live blogging the following sessions:
Monday
-
Building a Community - Wendy Piersall, Founder of
Sparkplugging.com
-
Paid Search Advertising - Christine Churchill, President of
KeyRelevance
- Link Building - Debra O'Neil Mastaler, Owner of Alliance Link
-
Local Search Workshop - Matt McGee, SEO Manager at
Marchex
-
Paid Search Workshop - Christine Churchill, President of
KeyRelevance
- Usability and Conversion Workshop - Matt Bailey, Founder of Site Logic Marketing
I'm excited to be here and excited for Robert and Jennifer who have wanted to put a conference on like this for some time. I hope it is a success for everyone that is involved.
