Two weeks ago I told you that you can’t ignore social media if you’re gonna succeed in business these days. Well this Wednesday there is a great opportunity for many of you small business owners and entrepreneurs I know. If you’re interested in internet marketing strategy, building a web presence, gaining visibility through the search engines, or if you are thinking about the risks and rewards of getting involved in blogging or social networks, then this is a perfect opportunity for you to learn from some of the experts who have been the most successful in this industry, all for FREE! Network Solutions is sponsoring the free online Solutions Stars Video Conference this Wedndesday, a web seminar featuring videos and live discussions with 34 leading web marketers and technology entrepreneurs. I don’t stand to profit from promoting this conference in any way, but several of these guys are personal role models for me—so I’ll definitely be tuning in on Wednesday and I highly suggest you do the same!
For anyone thinking about getting involved in blogging, you’ll hear from some of the biggest names in the blogosphere, like ProBlogger Darren Rowse, 4-Hour Workweek author Tim Ferriss, Chris Brogan, Wendy Piersall and Liz Strauss. And for technology entrepreneurs or business owners who hope to use web 2.0/social media marketing to their advantage, you’ll learn from the success stories of individuals like Garage Technology Ventures‘ Guy Kawasaki (also author of The Art of the Start) and Zappos CEO Tony Hsieh.
Attendees will be able to watch individual videos based on their content area preference or view the conference in its entirety. While the videos are streaming, viewers will be able to chat online with the Network Solutions team […] or participate in a live public chat.
The videos will be streaming live this Wednesday, October 29th, at 1pm EST/10am PST, and I believe they’ll still be available for download after that, but I highly recommend you take the opportunity to hear from some of these big names:
