Local agencies join forces to present Social Media University

Trivera Interactive, Corporate Identity Solutions, and Clear Verve Marketing have joined forces to develop Social Media University, an educational event that will provide hands-on learning and real-life examples of the most prominent social media tools in use today.

 

 

The event, conceived by Tom Snyder, President/CEO of Trivera Interactive in Germantown, will be held on Wednesday, July 29 at the Italian Conference Center, 631 E. Chicago Street, Milwaukee. Visit www.socialmediamilwaukee.com for ticket info.

 

 

The event brings together local social media experts who will share real-life experiences with social media and help business owners embrace best practices for this new era of communications. Presenters will include:

 

· Chris Remington & Katie Fleming – Trivera Interactive

 

· Sue Marks – Pinstripe Talent

 

· Augie Ray – Fullhouse

 

· Jon Kurozawa– K6 Marketing

 

· Christina Steder – Clear Verve Marketing

 

· Katie Felten – MKElive.com

 

· Sara Meaney – Comet Branding

 

· Blake Samic – Actions Talk

 

· Scott Baitinger – Streetza Pizza

 

· Joe Woelfle – Blatz Liquor

 

· Phil Gerbyshak – the Make it Great Guy

 

A keynote presentation will be delivered by Jay Steinfeld, CEO – Blinds.com. Jay will share how one of America's largest online brands has used the power of the Web, first to build a small business into an Internet powerhouse, and now, through Social Media, is turning his brand's fan base into the fuel for even greater success.

 

 

The event will be followed by a Tweetup, organized by Corporate Identity Solutions (aka The Tweetup Girls).

 

Attendees are encouraged to bring laptops in order to immediately apply what they learn to their companies.

 

“As an interactive marketing company, many of our clients were approaching us with questions on nearly every aspect of social media,” explains Tom Snyder. “Because social media is growing and changing so quickly, it is difficult for many people, even marketers, to keep up with all the changes. We felt that if we brought together a group of people we admired and gave business owners the opportunity to learn from a these subject matter experts, attendees would walk away with a complete experience at a much higher level than we could provide by hosting a short event on our own.”
