online marketing for mediatorsAre you thinking about starting a blog as part of your mediation marketing strategy? Have you already begun blogging and want to increase traffic from your target market or learn how to make your blog better?

Then I hope I’ll see you at SOBcon08: Biz School for Bloggers, May 2-4 at The Summit Executive Center in the heart of Chicago’s Magnificent Mile. I attended SOBcon07, the conference’s inaugural year, and can tell you without reservation that it was the best conference I’ve attended. Ever. Of any type. And probably the most fun. I learned tons, met very cool folks, many with whom I’m still in contact, and left energized.

Why should you go?

10 Reasons You Should Go to SOBcon08

  1. You’ll learn about blogging from the best. The presenter list reads like a Who’s Who of Successful Business Blogging.
  2. You’ll learn how social media is remapping the business marketing landscape.
  3. You’ll meet and make real human connections with a bunch of like-minded folks.
  4. You’ll walk away with ideas and strategies you can immediately put into use for your own mediation marketing.
  5. You’ll learn what doesn’t work in business blogging.
  6. You’ll be surrounded by some very sweet geeks and a lot who aren’t geeky at all.
  7. You’ll have tons of fun. I promise.
  8. You’ll get to hear the wise, witty and wonderful Christine Kane in concert.
  9. You’ll get your creativity re-charged and your business-building energy renewed.
  10. I’ll get to meet and hang out with you!
  11. Ok, 11 reasons. You’ll get to meet SOBcon masterminds Liz Strauss, Terry Starbucker, and Chris Cree. And if we’re really lucky, we’ll get to see Terry dance again.

If you go, plan to bring your laptop if you have one (last year there were more laptops per conference attendee than I’ve ever seen), 250 business cards, and the ADR blogging and social media questions you want answered.

Will I see you there? Leave a comment if you’ve registered or plan to, so I know I’ll see you there!

    Hey, Liz, thanks for dropping by. You are so kind to say that, and it’s just that kindness that drew me to SOBcon the first time around. See you in Chi-town!

    Hi, Easton -

    It’ll be good to see you again. And now that I’ve looked through the table of contents for your new book, I can’t wait to learn how to be my own blog Yoda!

    Hey,

    This sounds like a very valuable experience… If I weren’t half-way across the world, I would have loved to join.

    I hope it’s a fruitful experience for everyone!

    Hey, Elie -

    Maybe the SOBcon folks would come do a conference in Israel! It’s great to “meet” you and find your blog.
