Have you heard the buzz about Blogging Success Summit 2011—the web’s largest online blogging conference?
Before I tell you how this virtual summit will help your business gain more exposure, more qualified leads, better customer engagement and more sales, let me share a story with you.
PROOF BLOGGING WORKS…
In October 2009, Michael Stelzner started Social Media Examiner, a blog for marketers and small business owners. Almost overnight, his site became one of the top business blogs in the world. I’ve been following his success for a while, though I must admit it took a few months after his site launch before I stumbled across him.
He didn’t advertise, didn’t rely on the press and almost none of his traffic came from search engines. His growth was all organic.
Slightly more than a year later, he has nearly 50,000 email subscribers (I’m one of them!), a half-million page views a month, and has generated nearly $2 million in sales from the site. Holy faggioli! We should all be so lucky!
Everything he does focuses around delivering high-quality content along with intelligent marketing.
Michael’s story is not unique. A significant 43% of U.S. companies will be marketing via their own blog by 2012, according to eMarketer.
Now the connection… Blogging represents a new marketing frontier because it bypasses all the costly middlemen and allows you to own your own platform, quickly engaging with your customers and prospects! AND this presents an enormous opportunity for you.
SO WHAT’S THIS ABOUT?
Michael (and his team) have been working for months to bring the best minds in blogging together in a fully online event called Blogging Success Summit 2011.
More than 4,400 marketers and business owners from around the world attended his last two summits. Businesses were transformed. In fact, 95% of attendees said they’d attend again. That’s a significant statistic because it means that Michael and his team are delivering value, not just hype!
This summit’s focus is to empower you to implement successful blogging strategies, grow a loyal following, generate quality leads and sell with your blog. Who doesn’t want to achieve those goals? I know I do, I know many of my clients do!
That’s why Blogging Success Summit 2011 is bound to be the must attend online event of the year. Twenty-three of the world’s leading social media superstars will be summit instructors.
Presenters include Technorati CEO Richard Jalichandra, Scott Monty (head of social media, Ford), Darren Rowse (co-author, ProBlogger), Brian Clark (Copyblogger), Michael Stelzner (Social Media Examiner), Debbie Weil (author, The Corporate Blogging Book), Douglas Karr (co-author, Corporate Blogging for Dummies) and experts from McDonald’s, Cisco, Southwest Airlines, Sony and Procter & Gamble.
Plus join Joe Pulizzi (co-author, Get Content Get Customers), Mari Smith (co-author, Facebook Marketing), Jay Baer (co-author, The Now Revolution), Chris Garrett (co-author, ProBlogger), Dave Garland (author, Smarter, Faster, Cheaper), Mike Volpe (VP of marketing, HubSpot), and Rick Calvert (CEO, BlogWorld)—just to mention a few.
This is the world’s largest online blogging event designed to empower marketers and business owners to master blogging. And the great news is it’s a live online conference you can attend from your home or office.
I’ll be attending because even though I’m a serial blogger and have been for quite some time, I always manage to learn something new when I attend a seminar. And I’d love it if you could join me.
