Want to win a free ticket to the largest online social media marketing event of the year?
Social Media Examiner has worked hard to bring you our fourth-annual Social Media Success Summit. This is our best event ever! And we’ve come up with a fun way to get you involved.
First, what is this event?
Social Media Success Summit 2012 is a large online conference dedicated to helping marketers and business owners master social media marketing.
More than 1400 businesses have already signed up, including Wells Fargo, Motorola, Kraft Foods, Fox Broadcasting, Autodesk, Salesforce.com, Hubbell, American Heart Association, NASA, Marriott, Vanguard, HP, Verizon Wireless, McGraw-Hill, and hundreds of smaller businesses.
Twenty-seven of the world’s most respected social media experts will share their strategies with you.
Hear from Jeremiah Owyang (Altimeter Group), Chris Brogan (author, Google+ for Business), Mari Smith (co-author, Facebook Marketing), Brian Solis (author, Engage), Jay Baer (co-author, The Now Revolution), Jason Falls (author, No Bullshit Social Media), Frank Eliason (author, @YourService), Michael Stelzner (founder, Social Media Examiner), Mark Schaefer (author, The Tao of Twitter), Dave Kerpen (author, Likeable Social Media), Jesse Stay (author, Google+ for Dummies), C.C. Chapman (co-author, Content Rules), Kipp Bodnar (co-author, The B2B Social Media Book), Amy Porterfield (co-author, Facebook Marketing All-in-One for Dummies) and experts from LinkedIn, Dell, Ford, Citigroup and Citrix—just to mention a few.
Presentation topics include developing a social media strategy, finding and engaging your target audience, measuring success, converting activities to sales, and much more! Check out all the sessions.
At last summer’s summit, 98% of attendees said they’d recommend the event to a friend and attend again.
How can you win tickets?
We have three free tickets to the summit, valued at $597 each, plus the opportunity to be promoted to more than 140,000 of your peers! And remember, this is an online conference—so no travel is required to participate.
