It seems like Miami is THE place to be lately. First Brandon Marshall signs with the Dolphins, then Dwyane Wade, Lebron James, and Chris Bosh decide to take their talents to South Beach, and now a whole slew of companies are following suit by bringing their events to one of the most beautiful cities in Florida (besides Sarasota that is
)
Next month, September 30th to be exact, well known blogger and affiliate, Murray Newlands, is hosting his Social Media Marketing and Advertising event at the Ronald W Shane Centre in Miami Beach.
His company, Influence People, has put on a ton of very successful industry events lately, both nationally and in the UK, and has now decided to add Miami into their schedule as well.
So what is this event really about and who it is for?
According to their website, “Social Media Marketing & Advertising Miami will bring together social media companies, marketers and brands to discuss the latest tools and techniques for running effective social media marketing and advertising campaigns.
This one day conference offers expert-led guidance on how to engage with customers via advertising and promoted content in social media, including tips on how to maximize the impact of your campaigns, insights into new tools and services, how to monitor and measure the results, and trends to watch out for. This is the ultimate event for anyone interested in social media marketing.”
After looking at some of the sessions and the different speakers attending, this definitely looks like it will be a very valuable event for any business looking to expand their Social Media knowledge and expertise beyond the typical “You need to be on Twitter/Facebook” schpeel.
