NEW: IowaBizEvents

By on June 28, 2006 in Blogging with 3 Comments

This week, I decided to launch a new site, www.IowaBizEvents.com. I worked on it a little bit yesterday afternoon:

  • Published a feed
  • Mapped the domain
  • Populated two initial posts

Then we went live, "live blogging" a fantastic presentation by Jeff Bradford in front of a Des Moines YPC group.  Today, we made a few more tweaks:

  • Added a Category Cloud (Typepad offers that right up front now?  Cool!)
  • Added a Typelist for area Business Calendars
  • Sent a few emails out to event planners

Total cost? $29. 
Total time to launch: a few hours.
Value of the Relationships? Priceless!

I already have Typepad Pro (normally $15 per month), so it’s part of the ConverStations umbrella of sites. I already have FeedBurner Total Stats (normally $5 per month), so it’s part of that umbrella.  The domain name was $9 at GoDaddy. $29 in a few hours. Sweet!

What’s that sound? I Hear a Train a comin’

Find Your Social Media ROI

I hear it from a lot of business owners: “Where is the ROI with all this Social Media?“ If this is a question you ask yourself, maybe we should work together a bit more. We can work together solo, or via a professional learning community. Find and increase your ROI. There is a “there” there.
