That’s right – you heard it right. Next week I’ll be on a panel at BlogWorld Expo in Las Vegas where we’ll show you all the ways you can game Twitter, increase your followers, and be the top Twitter user in your area. Be prepared though because we’re also going to show you why that’s also not the best focus and how it actually could hurt your brand more than help it.
The panel I’m on is with some big names in the industry, especially in Twitterville itself. My friend Micah Baldwin, inventor of #followfriday will be joining us, along with Lucretia Pruitt, a.k.a. @GeekMommy on Twitter, and one of the Wal-Mart 11 Moms. I’ll of course be bringing my experience with SocialToo and the Twitter API, and we’ll also be joined by Reem Abeido of GroupM Search and Mr. Citizen Marketer, Aaron Strout himself.
We’re going up against some big names in the industry at the same time, so be sure to mark our session and make sure you’re clear which room and what time ours is at. We’re in room 228 from 11:30am to 12:30pm on October 16th (that’s Friday). The session is called “The Twitter Game – How to ‘Play’ Social Networking and Why it’s a Bad Idea”. Go ahead, mark your calendar – I’ll wait…
Are you done? Okay, I’ll wait some more…
Okay, now that you’ve marked your calendar and confirmed that you’re coming to our session and not the others (although I’ll forgive you if you don’t, maybe) let me give just one more motivation for coming. To those in the audience I’ll randomly hand out one signed FBML Essentials book. This book is valuable for both developers and marketers, as it will help anyone trying to understand the Facebook platform get into the hang of things with just a simple knowledge of HTML and maybe a little Javascript.
Also, if you haven’t registered for BlogWorld Expo yet, I’m told you can use PeopleBrowsr’s special code, “PB20” at this link and you’ll get 20% off registration. Now, be sure to thank me by coming to our session!
