Hi all, while Austin has an amazing amount of conferences for entrepreneurs, social media, developers and designers few tend to pull these disparate groups together in a focused manner, so the Ubiquity unSummit looks promising.
The goal of the unSummit (shamelessly stolen from their site): "Now is no time for fear or anxiety in Austin, Texas. It is time we come together as a community across all sectors, lay everything on the table, and work as a collective creative force to innovate, exchange, solve functional problems, and thrive. This is that opportunity. Jason Stoddard, who has set up the event has provided us with some additional details and a discount code for those who are interested: I am writing with the discount code for the Ubiquity Marketing unSummit, September 3rd,from 8am to 6:15pm at Shoreline Grill, overlooking Lady Bird Lake. Chris Brogan will present the keynote “The Possibility of Trust.” Additionally, I have put together an all-star team of twenty-three business owners, entrepreneurs and marketing practitioners to ensure you get the most value from your attendance. More information can be found here:http://www.ubiquitymarketingunsummit.com and direct registration can be found here:http://ubiquitymarketingtx.eventbrite.com/ . Simply enter the discount code “creativefidelity” for a $50 discount. Why would you want to attend? The downturn has asked everyone to be leaner and more agile. The downturn has cut into many of your margins. The effort you put forward often enjoins you work harder for less, sacrificing your personal time with friends and family. This can be exhausting. Since Q1 ’08, I have been documenting best practices from those industries and businesses that have garnered market share and no less than 200% ROMI, while reducing or maintaining marketing investment despite the perception that no one is doing well. Learning from these practices, there is a way to work smarter, not harder. The unSummit programming was developed for to both instruct you on said practices and bring you into the community, as well as drive Q4 ’09 transactional business and leverage that momentum into planning and executing your businesses’ marketing initiatives for 2010, and beyond. All in all, I’m writing to you because I thought you might want more: · more visibility, awareness, credibility, mindshare and conversions online and on the ground · more qualified prospects, customers and sales · more suppliers, business partners or strategic alliances · more strategies, tactics and ideas to grow your business · more involvement with like-minded friends for mutual support and encouragement · and most importantly, more personal relationships with people not unlike you that wake up every day hell bent on living, working and playing with within one-to-one relationships of mutual respect and honor that drive evangelism about the good work you do and the real value you bring to the marketplace. This is the foundation of community. Before closing, if your schedule prohibits your attendance or you're simply not interested, I invite you to give me a call and connect and/ or visit my blog from time to time,; perhaps we can arrange a co- written blog post based on our collective experience... I am all about collaboration and sharing my network. Thank you for your taking the time to read this over and I look forward to your positive response and/or seeing you September 3rd. If you attend, please let us know what you thought of the event!
