Here is an event so great that it’s even worth going to Houston for - The Small Business Marketing Unleashed Conference .
A snippet from the description:Â
Instead of hearing a panel of speakers share four different viewpoints, (leaving you to figure out which one is right) we’ll give the stage to one expert who knows how to explain the nuts and bolts of their topic to the small business audience. You’ll get the information that’s vital to improving your online marketing techniques and you’ll get it without the techno-talk and industry jargon so common to larger online marketing conferences.
They have some great folks lined up to participate, including Stoney deGeyter , Wendy Piersall and Matt Bailey , all wonderful leaders in the SMB marketing segment. If you can make it April 21-22, I highly recommend you go.
