Iowa: Field of Blogs

Lots of bloggy things going on in Iowa this week…

  • Wednesday 7:30-8:30 AM: Drew McLellan hosts his monthly Branding Breakfast (new location!). Okay, this one isn’t really about blogging, but a blogger hosts the deal and blogging can be an extension of your brand.
  • Wednesday 4:00-5:00 PM: Build-A-Blog Course. The first installment of our four-week build-a-blog course. $250 for the complete course. Only 1 seat remaining. (map)
  • Thursday 7:30 AM-8:30 AM: Iowa Business Blog Workshop.  We’ve found a new location (the new office at 1430 Locust Street). This week, we talk about sharing content in a way to encourage viral marketing.
  • Friday 8:00 – 9:00 AM: Central Iowa Bloggers meetup (aka Iowa Blogga Nostra): At Panera University (map). Informal meeting to share bread, coffee and ideas on social media. Even if you’re just on the listening side of the conversation – join us.

See you there (I’ve got copies of Beyond Buzz for anyone who makes all four events)

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.

    I would love to know what you think of this marketing scheme.

    Like I said, I think it’s a gimmick and appeals to people’s nerdy sensibilities. However, I can’t help but be jealous at how effective this marketing scheme is. It is truly viral.
    What are your thoughts?

    Hi Christopher, gave it a quick glance and wondered how it fits this conversation contextually. I’ll grab a longer look a bit later.
